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

Reverse transcriptase catalyses the conversion of RNA into DNA. This operation seems to have largely contributed to the evolution of complex genomes. More than 10% of a mammalian genome is composed of sequences with reverse transcribed origin, most of which consists of repeated sequences (SINEs, LINEs). In spite of their simplicity, these sequences can play a key role in evolution by favoring illegitimate recombination. In addition to this abundant material, retrotransposed sequences include retrotransposons, retroviruses and genes depleted from intervening sequences, known as pseudogenes. Some of these sequences can be functional or involved in the regulation of neighbouring genes. These hallmarks of reverse transcription activity indicate that it has largely contributed to the fluidity of modern genomes.
