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

In order to analyze the DNA amplification numerically with integration of the DNA kinetics, three-dimensional simulations, including flow and thermal fields, and one-dimensional polymerase chain reaction (PCR) kinetics are presented. The simulated results are compared with experimental data that have been applied to the operation of a continuous-flow PCR device. Microchannels fabricated by Micro Electro-Mechanical Systems (MEMS) technologies are shown. Comprehensive simulations of the flow and thermal fields and experiments measuring temperatures during thermal cycling are presented first. The resultant velocity and temperature profiles from the simulations are introduced to the mathematical models of PCR kinetics. Then kinetic equations are utilized to determine the evolution of the species concentrations inside the DNA mixture along the microchannel. The exponential growth of the double-stranded DNA concentration is investigated numerically with the various operational parameters during PCR. Next a 190-bp segment of
