DNA fingerprint comparison of rainbow trout and RTG-2 cell line using random amplified polymorphic DNA.

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.
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
The detection of genotoxic effects using in vitro cell systems can be extremely useful in risk assessment procedures. However, care should be taken in the extrapolation of in vitro results since, amongst other factors, established cell lines may deviate from the genetic characteristics of their species. In this work, the genetic similarities between the RTG-2 cell line and rainbow trout individuals (Oncorhynchus mykiss) from several fish farms have been studied by the RAPD technique. Results show a significant analogy in the band patterns obtained for both systems, up to 73% of the bands composing the fingerprint of the RTG-2 cell line were found in all the individuals analysed. The inter-population similarity index (Lynch, 1990), considering the RTG-2 cell line as a population, gives a value of 0.931 between both systems. The dendrogram constructed from all the individuals, considering the RTG-2 cell line as just another individual of a single population, showed that the genetic structure of the cell line was not different from those of the other individuals tested. The strong genetic similarity of both systems, together with the previously proven capability of the RAPD technique to detect genetic alterations caused in vitro by genotoxic agents, can be very useful in genetic ecotoxicological studies.
