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

Mitochondrial transcripts in kinetoplastids undergo remarkable posttranscriptional editing by uridylate insertion and deletion. The often dramatic remodeling of pre-mRNA sequences is directed by small guide RNAs (gRNAs) to produce mature mRNAs. In vitro analyses of editing have been used to determine the mechanism of editing and show that editing occurs by a series of enzyme-catalyzed steps. They also show that chimeric gRNA/mRNA molecules are not editing intermediates as proposed but are aberrant end products of editing. The complexes and molecules that catalyze editing are now being identified and characterized. The origin of editing, its developmental regulation which helps control the switching between terminal respiratory systems during the life cycle of trypanosomes, and other areas for future study are discussed.
