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 performed an analysis of global microsatellite variation on the two kindreds sequenced at high depth (~20×-60×) in the 1000 Genomes Project pilot studies because alterations in these highly mutable repetitive sequences have been linked with many phenotypes and disease risks. The standard alignment technique performs poorly in microsatellite regions as a consequence of low effective coverage (~1×-5×) resulting in 79% of the informative loci exhibiting non-Mendelian inheritance patterns. We used a more stringent approach in computing robust allelotypes resulting in 94.4% of the 1095 informative repeats conforming to traditional inheritance. The high-confidence allelotypes were analyzed to obtain an estimate of the minimum polymorphism rate as a function of motif length, motif sequence, and distribution within the genome.
