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

introductionThis study aimed to evaluate the performances of the MUSE

methodsWe conducted an experimental study on HIV-infected patient samples. Venous blood samples, collected in a K3 EDTA tube, were analyzed within 24-48 hours by MUSE

resultsIn total, 227 samples were analyzed. There was a strong intraclass correlation (p<0.0001) between MUSE
