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 demonstrate the applicability of ion-pair reversed-phase high-performance liquid chromatography-electrospray ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometry (ICEMS) for the simultaneous characterization of length and nucleotide polymorphisms. Two sections within the first (HVS-I) and second (HVS-II) hypervariable segments of the mitochondrial (mt)DNA control region were selected as targets, both containing poly-cytosine (C) tracts, which display length heteroplasmy at a substantial frequency in the population. The two mtDNA sections were simultaneously amplified and analyzed by ICEMS in 90 maternally unrelated mother-offspring pairs from Austria. The findings were confirmed by direct sequencing of the polymerase chain reaction products. For the detailed characterization of present-length heteroplasmic variants, the results retrieved through ICEMS were more informative compared with those derived from direct sequencing. Hence, ICEMS represents an interesting option for successful application in forensic science.
