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

Using the inverse polymerase chain reaction (IPCR), 19 U6snRNA gene promoters were isolated from the potato genome. Analysis of their nucleotide sequences revealed the existence of two subfamilies. Promoters from class 1 harbour the typical sequence elements required for plant snRNA gene transcription whereas those from class 2 do not have a TATA box. Three promoters were fused to a modified U6snRNA-coding sequence to allow their activity to be monitored in tobacco protoplasts. Two of the promoters, one from either class, were found to be active. Comparison of potato U6snRNA gene promoter sequences with those found in other plant species showed various degrees of homology. In addition, the entire nucleotide sequences of seven potato U6snRNA genes and one pseudogene were determined. The overall frequency of nucleotide changes after PCR was found to be 1.15 x 10(-3). The mutations appeared to be clustered in a distinct area and were all A-to-G/T-to-C substitutions.
