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

Simple sequence repeats (SSRs) or, Microsatellites are short repeat sequences that have been extensively studied in eukaryotic (plants) and prokaryotic (bacteria) organisms. Compared to other organisms, the presence and incidence of SSR on viral genomes are less studied. With the emergence of novel infectious viruses over the past few decades, it is imperative to study the genetic diversity in such viruses to predict their evolutionary and functional changes over time. Following the emergence of SARS-CoV-2, we have assembled 121 complete genomes reported from 31 countries across the six continents for the identification and characterization of SSR repeats. Using two independent SSR identification tools, we have found remarkable consistency in the diversity of microsatellites pattern (38-42 per genome) found in the 121 analyzed SARS-CoV-2 genomes indication their important role for genome stability. Among the identified motifs, trinucleotide and hexanucleotide repeats were found to be the most abundant form followed by mono- and di-nucleotide. There were no tetra- or penta-nucleotide repeats in the analyzed SARS-CoV-2 genomes. The discovery of microsatellites in SARS-CoV-2 genomes may become useful for the population genetics, evolutionary analysis, strain identification and genetic variation.
