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

To develop a noninvasive sample collection method for genotyping, we compared PCR products from samples collected from neonates using five different brands of adhesive tape. Next, the youngest application age to distinguish genotypes was established. The tapes were applied on the backs of rats on postnatal day (PND) 10. DNA extracts from two brands provided clear PCR products that enabled genotype identification. The youngest age for distinguishing genotypes was PND 5; however, the youngest age that provided accurate results was PND 7. Thus, the present method allows for genotyping during the neonatal period without invasive burden and may improve animal welfare by refining.
