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

Ornate, large, extremophilic (OLE) RNAs, found in many Gram-positive bacterial species, represent an unusual class of noncoding RNAs, which form a large ribonucleoprotein complex that localizes to cell membranes. Although the precise biochemical functions of OLE RNAs remain to be discovered, several lines of evidence suggest that they participate in forming particles that function as the master regulators of their bacterial hosts. Thus, OLE RNA might be a molecular relic of RNA World organisms that contributed to cellular stress responses long before the evolutionary emergence of proteins. Recent reports of partial 3D structures strongly suggest that OLE RNAs form a molecular dimer whose complex structure spans the phospholipid bilayer of membranes. The implications of these findings on the functions of OLE RNA and on the capabilities of RNA polymers more broadly are discussed.
