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

Microsatellites appear widely in genomes of diverse species. Variants of repeat number of microsatellites often correlate with risks of genetic disorder or severity of diseases. Using cross-species comparison, the proposed system comprehensively verifies microsatellites of specific genes related to 16 genetic disorders. Genomic information retrieved from 14 frequently used model organisms in biomedical study was thoroughly analyzed, emphasizing conserved and diverse traits. Features of microsatellite sequences among different organisms, including appearing frequency, position, pattern and distribution, could be determined automatically for stating genetically functional conservation and evolutionary correlation. This research found that among mammals and fishes, the microsatellite sequences are conserved in the genes of epidermal growth factor receptor, ataxia telangiectasia mutated and androgen receptor corresponding to cancers, ataxia telangiectasia and hepatocellular carcinoma, respectively. Still, except fruit fly conserved CAG repeats in Huntington and Spinocerebellar ataxia type 2 genes, no microsatellites were conserved in those genes linked to neurological/neurodegenerative disorders among mammal and fish species. In comparison of mammalian species, microsatellite biomarkers identified from 17 genetic disorder-related genes revealed high repeat conservation, especially in human, gorilla and macaque. Obviously, this comparative analysis illustrates microsatellite repeats affecting genetic disorders, highly correlated to evolutionary distance of species. Chief contribution of this
