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

The increasing prevalence of array-based comparative genomic hybridization in the clinical laboratory necessitates the implementation of quality control measures to attain accurate results with a high level of confidence. Environmental ozone is present in all industrialized cities and has been found to be detrimental to array data even at levels considered acceptable by US Environmental Protection Agency standards. In this study, we characterized the effect of ozone on microarray data on three different labeling platforms that use different fluorescent dyes (Cy3 and Cy5, Alexa Fluor 555 and Alexa Fluor 647, and Alexa Fluor 3 and Alexa Fluor 5) that are commonly used in array-based comparative genomic hybridization. We investigated the effects of ozone on microarray data by washing the array in variable ozone environments. In addition, we observed the effects of prolonged exposure to ozone on the microarray after washing in an ozone-free environment. Our results demonstrate the necessity of minimizing ozone exposure when washing and drying the microarray. We also found that washed microarrays produce the best results when immediately scanned; however, if a low-ozone environment is maintained, there will be little compromise in the data collected.
