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

Huanglongbing (HLB) or citrus greening is highly destructive disease that is affecting the citrus industry worldwide and it has killed millions of citrus plants globally. HLB is caused by the phloem limited, Gram negative, non-culturable, alpha-proteobacterium, 'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus'. Currently, polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and real time PCR have been the gold standard techniques used for detection of 'Ca. L. asiaticus'. These diagnostic methods are expensive, require well equipped laboratories, not user-friendly and not suitable for on-site detection of the pathogen. In this study, a sensitive, reliable, quick and low cost recombinase polymerase based isothermal amplification combined with lateral flow assay (HLB-RPA-LFA) technique has been developed as a diagnostic tool for detection of 'Ca. L. asiaticus'. The assay was standardized by designing the specific primer pair and probe based on the conserved 16S rRNA gene of 'Ca. L. asiaticus'. The assay was optimized for temperature and reaction time by using purified DNA and crude plant extracts and the best HLB-RPA-LFA was achieved at the isothermal temperature of 38°C for 20 to 30 min. The efficacy and sensitivity of the assay was carried out by using field grown, HLB-infected, HLB-doubtful and healthy citrus cultivars including mandarin, sweet orange cv. mosambi, and acid lime. The HLB-RPA-LFA did not show cross-reactivity with other citrus pathogens and is simple, cost-effective, rapid, user-friendly and sensitive. Thus, the HLB-RPA-LFA method has great potential to provide an improved diagnostic tool for detection of 'Ca. L. asiaticus' for the farmers, nurserymen, disease surveyors, mobile plant pathology laboratories, bud-wood certification and quarantine programs.
