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

Cardiomyopathies are complex myocardial diseases characterized by inappropriate ventricular hypertrophy (HCM) or dilation (DCM). Both disorders may lead to sudden death or progressive heart failure and exhibit familial aggregation with marked genetic heterogeneity. Many candidate genes were identified by linkage analysis, experimental animal studies, and expression analysis. A systematic assessment of the prevalence of different mutations in these genes requires high-throughput analyses. In this paper, we present a simple and reliable protocol for mutation screening by heteroduplex analysis which reduced costs and workload of sequencing. Employing denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE), 11 known and 14 potential candidate genes for HCM and DCM were analyzed. DGGE assays allowed analysis of 286 of the 312 protein coding exons, performing only four alternative polymerase chain reaction protocols and only two different DGGE analysis conditions. Sensitivity for the detection of heteroduplexes proved excellent, even for GC-rich DNA fragments, which were analyzed by a combination of DGGE and constant denaturant gel electrophoresis. To confirm DGGE sensitivity in cases where no variants in our human DNA samples could be observed, we generated heteroduplexes from homologous human and chimpanzee DNA. The platform proved a valuable contribution to elucidating the genetic causes of DCM and HCM as demonstrated by the identification of 17 different known and novel mutations and 98 different polymorphisms in our setting.
