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

Chemical, biological, radioactive, or nuclear (CBRN) incidents can occur due to accident or deliberate action, and may result in substantial loss of life. Whatever the cause, the requirement for identification of the deceased may necessitate the removal of contaminated samples to a DNA laboratory for processing. This review looks at the potential types of CBRN that may result in the requirement for DNA identification of the deceased and investigates the potential risks and difficulties associated with processing samples of this type.
