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

Dynamics of messenger ribonucleic acids (mRNAs) and the complexes with associated proteins (RNPs), also known as RNA granules, provide post-transcriptional control of gene expression. This regulation is crucial for cell-type diversity and activity-dependent plasticity of the mammalian central nervous system (CNS). However, elucidating the physiological significance of RNA granules has been hampered by the lack of technologies for probing them in live mouse brain. Here, we describe a novel method to visualize RNA granules in native CNS tissues in vivo. To amplify the fluorescence signal from single mRNAs incorporating MS2 stem loops, MS2 capsid protein (MCP) was conjugated with 4 tandem superfolder green fluorescent proteins (sfGFPs). Using MCP-4×sfGFP, a significant population of RNPs could be detected in specific cells of the CNS, enabling new findings, e.g., remarkable heterogeneity of
