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

It has been proposed that cauliflower mosaic virus 35S RNA with its 600 nt long leader uses an unusual translation process (the translational shunt). A wheat germ in vitro translation assay was used to improve the study of this mechanism. Deletions, the introduction of stable stem-loop structures, and the inhibitory effect of antisense oligonucleotides on gene expression were used to determine the roles of various parts of the leader. It was found that the 5'- and 3'-ends of the leader are absolutely required for translation whereas the middle part is apparently dispensable. These results confirm the data already reported from transient expression experiments with protoplasts. However, the in vitro data suggest in contrast to protoplast experiments that only two relatively short regions at both ends, approximately 100 nt each, are required. The in vitro system provides tools for further studying the shunt model at the molecular level and for examining the involvement of proteins in this mechanism. Shunting was also found to occur with the rice tungro bacilliform virus leader. As wheat is neither a host plant of cauliflower mosaic virus nor rice tungro bacilliform virus, the shunt seems to be host independent, a finding that deviates from earlier studies in protoplasts.
