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

Genetic testing of PKD1 and PKD2 is useful for the diagnosis and prognosis of autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease; however, analysis is complicated by the large transcript size, the complexity of the gene region, and the high level of gene variations. We developed a novel mutation screening assay for PKD1 by directly sequencing long-range (LR) PCR products. By using this method, the entire PKD1 coding region was amplified by nine reactions, generating product sizes from 2 to 6 kb, circumventing the need for specific PCR amplification of individual exons. This method was compared with direct sequencing used by a reference laboratory and the SURVEYOR-WAVE Nucleic Acid High Sensitivity Fragment Analysis System (Transgenomic) screening method for five patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease. A total of 53 heterozygous genetic changes were identified by LR PCR sequencing, including 41 (of 42) variations detected by SURVEYOR nuclease and all 32 variations reported by the reference laboratory, detecting an additional 12 intronic changes not identified by the other two methods. Compared with the reference laboratory, LR PCR sequencing had a sensitivity of 100%, a specificity of 98.5%, and an accuracy of 98.8%; compared with the SURVEYOR-WAVE method, it had a sensitivity of 97.1%, a specificity of 100%, and an accuracy of 99.4%. In conclusion, LR PCR sequencing was superior to the direct sequencing and screening methods for detecting genetic variations, achieving high sensitivity and improved intronic coverage with a faster turnaround time and lower costs, and providing a reliable tool for complex genetic analyses.
