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

Single cell genome analysis methods are powerful tools to define features of single cells and to identify differences between them. Since the DNA amount of a single cell is very limited, cellular DNA usually needs to be amplified by whole-genome amplification before being subjected to further analysis. A single nucleus only contains two haploid genomes. Thus, any DNA damage that prevents amplification results in loss of damaged DNA sites and induces an amplification bias. Therefore, the assessment of single cell DNA quality is urgently required. As of today, there is no simple method to determine the quality of a single cell DNA in a manner that will still retain the entire cellular DNA for amplification and downstream analysis. Here, we describe a method for whole-genome amplification with simultaneous quality control of single cell DNA by using a competitive spike-in DNA template.
