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

In the filamentous fungus Podospora anserina, senescence is associated with major rearrangements of the mitochondrial DNA. The undecamer GGCGCAAGCTC has been described as a preferential site for these recombination events. We show that: (i) copies of this short sequence GGCGCAAGCTC are present in unexpectedly high numbers in the mitochondrial genome of this fungus; (ii) a short cluster of this sequence, localised in a group II intronic ORF, encodes amino acids that disrupt a protein domain that is otherwise highly conserved between various species; (iii) most of the polymorphisms observed between three related species, P.anserina, P.curvicolla and P.comata, are associated with the presence/absence of this sequence; (iv) this element lies at the boundaries of major rearrangements of the mitochondrial genomes; (v) at least two other short elements in the Podospora mitochondrial genomes display similar features. We suggest that these short elements, called MUSEs (mitochondrial ultra-short elements), could be mobile and that they contribute to evolution of the mitochondrial genome in the genus Podospora. A model for mobility involving a target DNA-primed reverse transcription step is discussed.
