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

Regulatory RNA elements fulfill functions such as translational regulation, control of transcript levels, and regulation of viral genome replication. Trans-acting factors (i.e., RNA-binding proteins) bind the so-called cis elements and confer functionality to the complex. The specificity during protein-RNA complex (RNP) formation often exploits the structural plasticity of RNA. Functional integrity of cis-trans pairs depends on the availability of properly folded RNA elements, and RNA conformational transitions can cause diseases. Knowledge of RNA structure and the conformational space is needed for understanding complex formation and deducing functional effects. However, structure determination of RNAs under in vivo conditions remains challenging. This review provides an overview of structured eukaryotic and viral RNA cis elements and discusses the effect of RNA structural equilibria on RNP formation. We showcase implications of RNA structural changes for diseases, outline strategies for RNA structure-based drug targeting, and summarize the methodological toolbox for deciphering RNA structures.
