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 present a method to specifically select large sets of DNA sequences for parallel amplification by PCR using target-specific oligonucleotide constructs, so-called selectors. The selectors are oligonucleotide duplexes with single-stranded target-complementary end-sequences that are linked by a general sequence motif. In the selection process, a pool of selectors is combined with denatured restriction digested DNA. Each selector hybridizes to its respective target, forming individual circular complexes that are covalently closed by enzymatic ligation. Non-circularized fragments are removed by exonucleolysis, enriching for the selected fragments. The general sequence that is introduced into the circularized fragments allows them to be amplified in parallel using a universal primer pair. The procedure avoids amplification artifacts associated with conventional multiplex PCR where two primers are used for each target, thereby reducing the number of amplification reactions needed for investigating large sets of DNA sequences. We demonstrate the specificity, reproducibility and flexibility of this process by performing a 96-plex amplification of an arbitrary set of specific DNA sequences, followed by hybridization to a cDNA microarray. Eighty-nine percent of the selectors generated PCR products that hybridized to the expected positions on the array, while little or no amplification artifacts were observed.
