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

DXS6797 is a complex X-chromosomal locus which contains two variable short tandem repeats (STRs) (motif ATCT) separated by 128 non-polymorphic nucleotides. The two STRs can be cleaved apart by Taq I digestion. Conventionally, DXS6797 is typed by measuring the overall amplicon length, providing only eight alleles [polymorphism information content (PIC) 0.733, mean exclusion chance (MEC) 0.712]. Separate amplification would increase the discrimination but obscure the haplotype constellation in females. Therefore, we proceed by amplifying the whole sequence containing both repeats (DXS6797 I and DXS6797 II) using a Fam-labelled forward primer and a Tamra-labelled reverse primer. We then measure the length of the entire double-labelled amplicon and a Taq-I-digested aliquot to infer, for both males and females, compound haplotypes consisting of DXS6797 I and DXS6797 II repeat length. This procedure has the potential to provide 42 DXS6797 haplotypes. If the crossover rate between both STRs is assumed to be <1.5x10(-6), DXS6797 haplotypes could be used for kinship testing like STR alleles. In our German sample (780 X chromosomes), we determined 27 haplotypes (PIC 0.842, MEC 0,834) and in 220 meioses, we found no new mutations.
