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 advent of next-generation sequencing (NGS) has accelerated biomedical research by enabling the high-throughput analysis of DNA sequences at a very low cost. However, NGS has limitations in detecting rare-frequency variants (< 1%) because of high sequencing errors (> 0.1~1%). NGS errors could be filtered out using molecular barcodes, by comparing read replicates among those with the same barcodes. Accordingly, these barcoding methods require redundant reads of non-target sequences, resulting in high sequencing cost. Here, we present a cost-effective NGS error validation method in a barcode-free manner. By physically extracting and individually amplifying the DNA clones of erroneous reads, we distinguish true variants of frequency > 0.003% from the systematic NGS error and selectively validate NGS error after NGS. We achieve a PCR-induced error rate of 2.5×10
