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

We applied a new strategy for the detection of N-ras gene mutations based on LightCycler technology. We designed two sets of amplimers and internal hybridization probes representing N-ras codons 12/13 and codon 61, respectively. Genomic DNAs from 134 childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL) patients (83 common ALL, nine pre-pre-B ALL, 19 pre-B ALL, 23 T-ALL) were amplified, followed by the analysis of the melting temperatures of the PCR products on the LightCycler. PCR products exhibiting an abnormal melting characteristic were directly sequenced. Sequence analyses unravelled nucleotide substitutions at codon 12 in 10 patients, at codon 13 in three, and at codon 61 in one case. The incidence of N-rasmutations (10%) is compatible with previous reports. The LightCycler technology facilitates the rapid analysis of other genes exhibiting hot spot mutations in human malignancies.
