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

A specific terminal structure of preintegrative DNA is required for transposition of retroviruses and LTR-retrotransposons. We have used an anchored PCR technique to map the 3'ends of DNA intermediates synthesized inside yeast Ty1 and Ty3 retrotransposon virus-like particles. We find that, unlike retroviruses, Ty1 replicated DNA does not have two extra base pairs at its 3'ends. In contrast some Ty3 preintegrative DNA molecules have two extra nucleotides at the 3'end of upstream and downstream long terminal repeats. Moreover we find that some molecules of replicated Ty3 DNA have more than two extra nucleotides at the 3'end of the upstream LTR. This observation could be accounted for by imprecise RNAse H cutting of the PPT sequence. The site of Ty1 and Ty3 plus-strand strong-stop DNA termination was also examined. Our results confirm that the prominent Ty1 and Ty3 plus-strand strong-stop molecules harbor 12 tRNA templated bases but also show that some Ty1 and Ty3 plus-strand strong-stop DNA molecules harbor less tRNA templated bases. We propose that these less than full length plus-strand molecules could be active intermediates in Ty retrotransposon replication.
