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

In this study the development of a 13-locus multiplex-PCR system fitting the updated demands for paternity testing in Germany is described. For this purpose an existing multiplex PCR system that allows the simultaneous amplification of eight different STR loci together with the sex-specific locus amelogenin ( genRESMPX-2, Serac, Germany) was extended. Whereas some of the primers were taken from the underlying multiplex system, suitable primer sequences were chosen for the STR loci D19S433, TPOX, TH01, D16S539, D5S818, D2S1338 and FGA. Primers of loci resulting in potentially overlapping fragment sizes were labelled with the fluorescent dyes 6-FAM, JOE and NED. Reaction conditions, such as annealing temperature, concentrations of primers and polymerase or buffer conditions were optimised to obtain a robust amplification and reproducible genotype analysis for various sample sources. Full DNA profiles from single source samples were reliably typed from template DNA amounts of as low as 120 pg, suggesting a potential use of this system also in forensic casework analysis. With a mean exclusion chance (MEC) of 99.9989% and a power of discrimination (P(D)) of about 1x10(14) (Caucasians), the new multiplex PCR system provides a significant and sensitive system for forensic DNA analysis. On the basis of these studies, a commercial kit system is now provided by Serac (Bad Homburg, Germany, genRESMPX-3).
