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

Self-splicing of the Tetrahymena group I intron is attenuated by an rRNA stem-loop in the 5' exon, which competes with formation of the P1 splice site helix. The equilibrium between the P1 and P(-1) stem-loops is influenced by rRNA sequences upstream and downstream of the intron. To investigate the mechanism of this conformational switch, internal deletions and point mutations were introduced in the second rRNA stem-loop upstream of the 5' splice site. Nuclease protection, native gel electrophoresis, and self-splicing results show that this helix is important for maintaining self-splicing activity. Co-axial base stacking of adjacent helices in the 5' exon is proposed to enable exchange between inactive and active conformations of the pre-rRNA.
