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 forensic DNA analysis, improvement of DNA typing technologies has always been an issue. It has been shown that DNA amplification in low volumes is a suitable way to enhance the sensitivity and efficiency of amplification. In this study, DNA amplification was performed on a flat, chemically structured glass slide in 1-microl reaction volumes from cell line DNA contents between 1,000 and 4 pg. On-chip DNA amplification reproducibly yielded full allelic profiles from as little as 32 pg of template DNA. Applicability on the simultaneous amplification of 15 short tandem repeats and of a segment of the Amelogenin gene, which are routinely used in forensic DNA analysis, is shown. The results are compared to conventional in-tube amplification carried out in 25-microl reaction volumes.
