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

Although RNA molecules are synthesized via transcription, little is known about the general impact of cotranscriptional folding in vivo. We present different computational approaches for the simulation of changing structure ensembles during transcription, including interpretations with respect to experimental data from literature. Specifically, we analyze different mutations of the E. coli SRP RNA, which has been studied comparatively well in previous literature, yet the details of which specific metastable structures form as well as when they form are still under debate. Here, we combine thermodynamic and kinetic, deterministic, and stochastic models with automated and visual inspection of those systems to derive the most likely scenario of which substructures form at which point during transcription. The simulations do not only provide explanations for present experimental observations but also suggest previously unnoticed conformations that may be verified through future experimental studies.
