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

Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts were recovered by immunomagnetic separation from six artificially contaminated foods. Two DNA isolation methods were subsequently evaluated by PCR. The FTA Concentrator-PS filter provided rapid and reproducible detection, although variability increased at lower inoculum levels (88% and 15% detection in high- and low-inoculum-level samples, respectively). Total DNA extraction generated consistent results at all oocyst levels but resulted in longer analysis time (100% and 59% detection in high- and low-inoculum-level samples, respectively). Also reflected in this study was that the matrix played an important role in the ability to recover oocysts, as sample turbidity, pH, and PCR inhibitors all influenced detection.
