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

Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) is a well-established technique that allows the detection of microorganisms in diverse types of samples (e.g., clinical, food, environmental samples, and biofilm communities). The FISH probe design is an essential step in this technique. For this, two strategies can be used, the manual form based on multiple sequence alignment to identify conserved regions and programs/software specifically developed for the selection of the sequence of the probe. Additionally, databases/software for the theoretical evaluation of the probes in terms of specificity, sensitivity, and thermodynamic parameters (melting temperature and Gibbs free energy change) are used. The purpose of this chapter is to describe the essential steps and guidelines for the design of FISH probes (e.g., DNA and Nucleic Acid Mimic (NAM) probes), and its theoretical evaluation through the application of diverse bioinformatic tools.
