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

Recently, it has been recognized that information in the mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) coding region can provide additional forensic discrimination with respect to the standard typing of the D-loop region, increasing the forensic power of mtDNA testing, which is sometimes rather limited. In the present study, we simultaneously typed ten single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) in the coding region by use of mutagenically separated polymerase chain reaction (MS-PCR) in the Chinese Chengdu population. This technique, in which different-size allele-specific primers were used, specifically amplified both alleles of mtDNA in the same reaction. Subsequent gel electrophoresis showed ten of the allelic products of different loci. Using multiplex MS-PCR, 30 primers were added simultaneously into one reaction tube to identify ten SNPs. The mtDNA variations of 160 individuals from the Chinese Chengdu population were examined and classified into 18 haplotypes. The multiplex MS-PCR method is suitable for large-scale screening studies of mtDNA variability because it is both rapid and economical.
