1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

This report describes a chemiluminescence-based detection method for RNAs on northern blots, designated Chemi-Northern. This approach builds on the simplicity and versatility of northern blotting, while dispensing of the need for expensive and cumbersome radioactivity. RNAs are first separated by denaturing gel electrophoresis, transferred to a nylon membrane, and then hybridized to a biotinylated RNA or DNA antisense probe. Streptavidin conjugated with horseradish peroxidase and enhanced chemiluminescence substrate are then used to detect the probe bound to the target RNA. Our results demonstrate the versatility of this method in detecting natural and engineered RNAs expressed in cells, including messenger and noncoding RNAs. We show that Chemi-Northern detection is sensitive and fast, detecting attomole amounts of RNA in as little as 1 sec, with high signal intensity and low background. The dynamic response displays excellent linearity. Using Chemi-Northern, we measure the reproducible, statistically significant reduction of mRNA levels by human sequence-specific RNA-binding proteins, PUM1 and PUM2. Additionally, we measure the interaction of the poly(A) binding protein, PABPC1, with polyadenylated mRNA. Thus, the Chemi-Northern method provides a versatile, simple, and cost-effective method to enable researchers to analyze expression, processing, binding, and decay of RNAs.
