Derailing the host machinery to achieve replication: how viroid and viroid-like RNAs successfully copy their genomes in hostile territory.
Review in RNA biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Circular infectious RNAs have been known for several decades. Their biology has been intriguing from the beginning, partly due to the antithesis between their efficiency and tiny size. Amongst infectious circular RNAs viroids hold a special place not only because they were the first to be characterized as such but also because they have been extensively studied as a group. Viroids do not encode proteins and therefore have to rely for their biological cycle on the host factors. As a result, the identification and functional characterization of host factors enabling their biological cycle has been of prime importance to the community. With the advent of high throughput sequencing technologies, viroid-like infectious RNAs have been found in plants, fungi, and animals, including mammals, making understanding their biology even more interesting and important. In this review, we summarize what is known about the replication of these tiny yet very efficient infectious RNAs.
