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

Detection and quantification of viruses in laboratory and clinical samples are standard assays in dengue virus (DENV) studies. The quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) is considered to be the standard for DENV detection and quantification due to its high sensitivity. However, qRT-PCR offers only quantification relative to a standard curve and consists of several "in-house" components resulting in interlaboratory variations. We developed and optimized a protocol for applying one-step RT-droplet digital PCR (RT-ddPCR) for DENV detection and quantification. The lower limit of detection (LLOD95) and the lower limit of quantification (LLOQ) for RT-ddPCR were estimated to be 1.851 log10-copies/reaction and 2.337 log10-copies/reaction, respectively. The sensitivity of RT-ddPCR was found to be superior to qRT-PCR (94.87% vs. 90.38%,
