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

We present experimental evidence that DNA can be concentrated due to an electrohydrodynamic coupling between a pressure-driven flow and a parallel electric field. The effects of buffer properties on the process were measured in a microfluidic channel. The concentration rates and the efficiency of trapping DNA were quantified as functions of the ion and polymer concentrations of the buffer solution. Buffers with large ion concentrations hindered the ability to trap DNA, reducing the short-time efficiency of the concentration process from nearly 100% to zero. Importantly, DNA was trapped in the microfluidic channel even when the buffer solution lacked any measurable viscoelastic response. These observations indicate that electrohydrodynamic migration drives the concentration of DNA. We found no evidence of viscoelastic migration in these experiments.
