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

Homologous alignment cloning (HAC) is a rapid method of molecular cloning that facilitates low-cost, highly efficient cloning of polymerase chain reaction products into any plasmid vector in approximately 2 min. HAC facilitates insert integration due to a sequence alignment strategy, by way of short, vector-specific homology tails appended to insert during amplification. Simultaneous exposure of single-stranded fragment ends, utilising the 3'→5' exonuclease activity of T4 DNA polymerase, creates overlapping homologous DNA on each molecule. The exonuclease activity of T4 polymerase is quenched simply by the addition of EDTA and a simple annealing step ensures high yield and high fidelity vector formation. The resultant recombinant plasmids are transformed into standard
