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

Intron 40 of the von Willebrand factor (vWF) gene exhibits a highly variable region of about 0.65 kb, which contains 5 juxtaposed STRs. We sequenced 0.65 kb amplicons from 68 chromosomes and found 2 frequent indel polymorphisms and 5 SNPs. The 68 chromosomes investigated here presented a total of 47 different haplotypes. Regarding the SNP allele distribution in our sample, we arranged our results of the vWF intron 40 into a system of 3 haplotypes, i.e. haplotypes a, b and c. Our review may be valuable in further optimising vWF typing in forensic applications and in avoiding pitfalls. Further attempts to develop sophisticated techniques may soon enable haplotyping using autosomale STR clusters.
