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

The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) frameshift stimulatory element (FSE) is necessary for programmed -1 ribosomal frameshifting (-1 PRF) and optimized viral efficacy. The FSE has an abundance of context-dependent alternate conformations, but two of the structures most crucial to -1 PRF are an attenuator hairpin and a three-stem H-type pseudoknot structure. A crystal structure of the pseudoknot alone features three RNA stems in a helically stacked linear structure, whereas a 6.9 Å cryo-EM structure including the upstream heptameric slippery site resulted in a bend between two stems. Our previous research alluded to an extended upstream multibranch loop that includes both the attenuator hairpin and the slippery site-a conformation not previously modeled. We aim to provide further context to the SARS-CoV-2 FSE via computational and medium resolution cryo-EM approaches, by presenting a 6.1 Å cryo-EM structure featuring a linear pseudoknot structure and a dynamic upstream multibranch loop.
