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

backgroundPCR with sequence-specific priming using allele-specific fluorescent primers and analysis on a capillary sequencer is a standard technique for DNA typing. We aimed to adapt this method for donor typing in a medium-throughput setting.

methodsUsing the Extract-N-Amp PCR system, we devised a set of eight multiplex allele-specific PCR with fluorescent primers for Fy

resultsOn validation using 312 samples, for 1.1% of antigens (in 5.4% of samples) no prediction was obtained. 99.96% of predictions were correct. Consumable cost per donor were below EUR 2.00. In routine use, 92.2% of samples were successfully predicted. Discrepancies were most frequently due to technical reasons. A total of 11 previously unknown alleles were detected in the Kell, Lutheran, and Colton blood group systems. In 2017, more than 20% of the RBC units prepared by our institution were from donors with predicted antigen status. A steady supply of Yt(a-), Co(a-) and Lu(b-) RBC units was ensured.

conclusionsPooled capillary electrophoresis offers a suitable alternative to other methods for extended donor DNA typing. Establishing a large cohort of typed donors improved transfusion support for patients.
