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

DNA microarrays have been widely used in gene expression analysis of biological processes. Due to a lack of sequence information, the applications have been largely restricted to humans and a few model organisms. Presented within this study are results of the cross-species hybridization with Affymetrix human high-density oligonucleotide arrays or GeneChip using distantly related mammalian species; cattle, pig and dog. Based on the unique feature of the Affymetrix GeneChip where every gene is represented by multiple probes, we hypothesized that sequence conservation within mammals is high enough to generate sufficient signals from some of the probes for expression analysis. We demonstrated that while overall hybridization signals are low for cross-species hybridization, a few probes of most genes still generated signals equivalent to the same-species hybridization. By masking the poorly hybridized probes electronically, the remaining probes provided reliable data for gene expression analysis. We developed an algorithm to select the reliable probes for analysis utilizing the match/mismatch feature of GeneChip. When comparing gene expression between two tissues using the selected probes, we found a linear correlation between the cross-species and same-species hybridization. In addition, we validated cross-species hybridization results by quantitative PCR using randomly selected genes. The method shown herein could be applied to both plant and animal research.
