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

Genome sequences from several blood borne and respiratory viruses have recently been recovered directly from clinical specimens by variants of a technique known as sequence-independent single primer amplification. This and related methods are increasingly being used to search for the causes of diseases of presumed infectious aetiology, but for which no agent has yet been found. Other methods that do not require prior knowledge of the genome sequence of any virus that may be present in the patient specimen include whole genome amplification, random PCR and subtractive hybridisation and differential display. This review considers the development and application of these techniques.
