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

Ribosome stalling caused by polyproline (PPs) motifs is common. Their translation is enhanced by accessory proteins such as YebC in bacteria, whose homolog, TRANSLATIONAL ACTIVATOR OF CYTOCHROME C OXIDASE 1 (TACO1), aids the translation of mitochondria-encoded proteins. The prevalence of PP motifs across plastid-encoded genes and their impact on the translation of photosynthesis-relevant proteins remains unexplored. Equally, a translation-enhancer of PP motifs equivalent to TACO1 for plastid ribosomes has not been reported. Here, we show that plastid genomes encode 24 proteins with a minimum of one PP motif on average, half of which are conserved in their cyanobacterial homologs, and that the vast majority of eukaryotes, including plants, encode a single TACO1 that we demonstrate to be dually targeted to mitochondria and plastids of
