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

The fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)-based padlock probe and rolling circle amplification (RCA) method allows for the detection of point mutations. However, it requires multiple reaction steps and solution exchanges, making it costly, labor-intensive, and time-consuming. In this study, we aimed to improve the efficiency of padlock/RCA by determining the effects of microchannel shape and ultrasonic solution mixing. Using a circular-shaped microchamber and ultrasonic mixing, the efficiency of microfluidic padlock/RCA was improved, and the consumption of the expensive probe solution was reduced from 10 µL to approximately 3.5 µL. Moreover, the fluorescent probe hybridization time was reduced to 5 min, which is four times faster than that of the standard protocol. We used this method to successfully detect mitochondrial DNA and transcripts of β
