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

RNA-binding proteins are essential regulators of RNA processing and function. Translational repression assays can be used to study how they interact with specific RNA sequences by insertion of such a consensus sequence into the 5' untranslated region of a reporter mRNA and measuring reporter protein translation. The straightforward set-up of these translational repression assays avoids the need for the isolation of the protein or the RNA providing speed, robustness and a low-cost method. Here, we report the optimization of the assay to function with linear RNA sequences instead of the previously reported hairpin type sequences to allow the study of a wider variety of RNA-binding proteins. Multiplication of a consensus sequence strongly improves the signal allowing analysis by both fluorescence intensity measurements and flow cytometry.
