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

Model coliphages (e.g., ΦX174, MS2, and PRD1) have been widely used as surrogates to study the fate and transport of pathogenic viruses in the environment and during wastewater treatment. Two groups of coliphages (F-specific and somatic) are being explored as indicators of viral fecal pollution in ambient water. However, the detection and quantification of coliphages still largely rely on time-consuming culture-based plaque assays. In this study, we developed an in-gel loop-mediated isothermal amplification (gLAMP) system enabling coliphage MS2 quantification within 30 min using standard laboratory devices. Viral particles (MS2) were immobilized with LAMP reagents in polyethylene glycol hydrogel, and then viral RNAs were amplified through a LAMP reaction. Due to the restriction effect of the hydrogel matrix, one viral particle would only produce one amplicon dot. Therefore, the sample virus concentrations can be determined based on the number of fluorescent amplicon dots using a smartphone for imaging. The method was validated by using artificially spiked and naturally contaminated water samples. gLAMP results were shown to correlate well with plaque assay counts ( R
