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

We have shown that precursors of U3, U8 and U14 small nucleolar RNAs (snoRNAs) are not exported to the cytoplasm after injection into Xenopus oocyte nuclei but are selectively retained and matured in the nucleus, where they function in pre-rRNA processing. Our results demonstrate that Box D, a conserved sequence element found in these and most other snoRNAs, plays a key role in their nuclear retention, 5' cap hypermethylation and stability. Retention of U3 and U8 RNAs in the nucleus is saturable and relies on one or more common factors. Hypermethylation of the 5' caps of U3 RNA occurs efficiently in oocyte nuclear extracts lacking nucleoli, suggesting that precursor snoRNAs are matured in the nucleoplasm before they are localized to the nucleolus. Surprisingly, m7G-capped precursors of spliceosomal small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs) such as pre-U1 and U2, can be hypermethylated in nuclei if the RNAs are complexed with Sm proteins. This raises the possibility that a single nuclear hypermethylase activity may act on both nucleolar and spliceosomal snRNPs.
