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 have developed a novel protocol for site-directed mutagenesis of double-stranded DNA. The procedure, termed SORS (named because it undergoes the sequential procedure of segmentation-overhang creating PCR-reannealing-splicing) mutagenesis, is exemplified by a substitution, a deletion, and an insertion of nucleotide(s) in target genes. The template DNA is PCR-amplified into two separate segments divided at the prospective mutation site, and each segment is amplified in two parallel PCRs using primers introducing the mutation. The primers are designed to be able to create protruding bases upon pooling, denaturing, and reannealing the two parallel reactions. The protruding bases at the prospective junction of the two segments are mutually complementary; therefore, the two segments can be re-spliced together to generate the mutated gene. Compared to previously published protocols, this procedure is rapid, restriction-independent and ensures higher success rate and lower potential to produce second-site mutations.
