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

Recent scientific advancements in the field of genetics have fostered significant changes for the criminal justice system. Growing National DNA databases, public DNA databases, private direct-to-consumer (DTC) DNA testing companies, and improvements in next-generation sequencing (NGS) have resulted in effective methods for tracking down criminals and exonerating the innocent. While these recently discovered and profound techniques seem to provide benefits, their use in forensic detection has become subject to harsh legal opposition. Ultimately, should law enforcement be permitted to analyze DNA found at crime scenes and DNA that has accumulated in national, public, and private databases to aid in their investigations, or are individuals' privacy rights breached in the process?
