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 developed an assay, which allows the sex determination of human DNA samples by pyrosequencing of short PCR products. A 48/45-bp stretch including primers of the amelogenin gene with a 3-bp insertion on the Y chromosome was chosen for analysis. In an initial study, we correctly typed 50 male and 50 female DNA samples from unrelated donors. First experiments with forensic samples, which failed in conventional analyses, indicate that this approach might be an advantage when dealing with degraded DNA.
