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

MicroRNAs regulate gene expression through sequence-specific interactions with target messenger RNAs (mRNAs), and their misregulation is a hallmark of cancer. MicroRNA-34a (miR-34a), a key modulator of the tumor suppressor p53, binds the mRNA encoding sirtuin 1 (mSirt1) and adopts multiple conformational states that influence repression efficiency. While such dynamics have been characterized in vitro, extending these studies to cellular environments is hampered by weak signals and substantial background inherent to nucleic acid NMR. To overcome this limitation, we developed a site-directed spin labeling strategy for RNA that enables targeted dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) signal enhancement. Using the bisnitroxide polarizing agent AsymPol-NCS-SDSL, we conjugated spin labels to specific positions of mSirt1 RNA and annealed them to
