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 Y chromosome short tandem repeat (Y-STR) haplotyping method has been widely used in forensic applications. However, the existing Y-STR panels are not the ideal tools for criminal investigation and database applications because of their relatively low discriminatory capacity (DC) or high mutation rates. In the present study, the multiplex PCR assay (AGCU Y30) for simultaneous amplification of 30 slowly and moderately mutated Y-STR loci labeled by 6-dye fluorescence was developed and validated. The AGCU Y30 assay was capable of amplification purified DNA from casework and database samples on FTA™ cards in direct amplification module with a 10 μL reaction volume. Furthermore, the genetic diversities and forensic parameters of AGCU Y30 were performed using 719 unrelated male samples, demonstrating its high level of genetic polymorphisms and DC in Nantong Han population. This validation study demonstrated good sensitivity, mixture samples, inhibitor tolerance, precision, and concordance for the AGCU Y30, which is suitable for forensic investigation and database construction.
