One-tube nested RT-PCR enabled by using a plastic film and its application for the rapid detection of SARS-virus.
Article in Biotechnology letters, 2004. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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
A general strategy based on the use of a plastic film that allows reverse transcription and nested-PCR in a single closed-tube has been developed. The reaction mixture for the second PCR amplification is quarantined in the cap of the reaction tube during the first round amplification by a piece of plastic film, and later introduced into the PCR amplicons from the first round reaction by centrifugation without opening the reaction tube. The main advantages of our method are its high sensitivity, specificity, simplicity, cost effectiveness, low risk of contamination and the ease in establishment of conditions for nested-PCR. The method has been successfully applied to the detection of the genomic RNA from SARS-CoV, the detection limit of this method is comparable to that of the conventional two-tube nested PCR system. This method could be easily adapted to the detection of other targets.
