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 order to further investigate sequences that are responsible for low-frequency recombination in plant mitochondrial DNAs and RNA editing in radish mitochondria, the nad3/rps12 locus has been isolated and characterized from a normal cultivar of radish and the male-sterile Ogura cytoplasm. A repeated sequence that has been implicated in other radish mitochondrial DNA rearrangements was identified at the breakpoint between the two loci indicating that it was also involved in the nad3/rps12 rearrangement. Similar to some other radish mitochondrial genes, nad3/rps12 genomic sequences already contain several, but not all, of the bases that are typically edited in plant mitochondrial nad3 and rps12 genes. Analysis of nad3/rps12 cDNAs indicated that the mRNAs are not edited. One partially edited transcript was identified out of the twenty two that were examined. This finding, along with the observation that nad3/rps12 RNAs are present at very low levels, raises the possibility that radish mitochondria may not encode functional copies of these genes. Consistent with this hypothesis, DNA-blot analysis detects nad3/rps12 sequences in the nucleus.
