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

backgroundKnockdown resistance (kdr) is the main mechanism that confers resistance to pyrethroids and DDT. This is a product of non-synonymous mutations in the voltage-gated sodium channel (vgsc) gene, and these mutations produce a change of a single amino acid which reduces the affinity of the target site for the insecticide molecule. In Mexico, V410L, V1016I and F1534C mutations are common in pyrethroid-resistant Aedes aegypti (L.) populations.

methodsA multiplex PCR was developed to detect the V410L, V1016I and F1534C mutations in Ae. aegypti. The validation of the technique was carried out by DNA sequencing using field populations previously characterized for the three mutations through allele-specific PCR (AS-PCR) and with different levels of genotypic frequencies.

resultsThe standardized protocol for multiplex end-point PCR was highly effective in detecting 15 genotypes considering the three mutations V410L, V1106I and F1534C, in 12 field populations of Ae. aegypti from Mexico. A complete concordance with AS-PCR and DNA sequencing was found for the simultaneous detection of the three kdr mutations.

conclusionsOur diagnostic method is highly effective for the simultaneous detection of V410L, V1016I and F1534C, when they co-occur. This technique represents a viable alternative to complement and strengthen current monitoring and resistance management strategies against Ae. aegypti.
