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

Assessing levels of standing genetic variation within species requires a robust sampling for the purpose of accurate specimen identification using molecular techniques such as DNA barcoding; however, statistical estimators for what constitutes a robust sample are currently lacking. Moreover, such estimates are needed because most species are currently represented by only one or a few sequences in existing databases, which can safely be assumed to be undersampled. Unfortunately, sample sizes of 5-10 specimens per species typically seen in DNA barcoding studies are often insufficient to adequately capture within-species genetic diversity. Here, we introduce a novel iterative extrapolation simulation algorithm of haplotype accumulation curves, called HACSim (
