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

backgroundHigh resolution melting (HRM) analysis is one of the newer, reliable, and sensitive genotyping techniques, which offers considerable time and cost savings. P-selectin is an adhesion molecule that has a role in the initial phases of leukocyte adhesion to stimulated platelets and endothelial cells in inflammation. Multiple polymorphisms in P-selectin gene (SELP) that affect the protein sequence have been described. The aim of this study was to design, optimize, and validate a simple and rapid in-house HRM-based method for genotyping the NM_003005.3:c.992G>A (c.992G>A), NM_003005.3:c.1918G>T (c.1918G>T), and NM_003005.3:c.2266A>C (c.2266A>C) SELP polymorphisms.

methodsInitial genotyping of three SELP polymorphisms was performed by applying polymerase chain reaction (PCR) with sequence-specific primers (SSP), which was used as a reference method for determination of analytical sensitivity. PCR-HRM was performed with primers for c.2266A>C reported in the literature. Primers for the remaining two polymorphisms were designed using Primer-BLAST. Precision testing was performed using three samples with different genotypes. For accuracy, analytical sensitivity and specificity testing, 20 wild type, 10 heterozygous, and 10 homozygous samples were chosen per polymorphism. Results were expressed as percentage of concordance with the acceptability criterion ≥95%.

resultsAgreement of results was 100% for all validation parameters except for analytical sensitivity for c.1918G>T and c.2266A>C, with agreement of 90%. Repeated analysis using both methods revealed an error in initial genotyping and correct genotyping by PCR-HRM, which was confirmed by Sanger sequencing.

conclusionThe validation confirmed PCR-HRM as a precise, accurate, and specific method for genotyping the c.992G>A, c.1918G>T, and c.2266A>C SELP polymorphisms.
