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

The Human Genome Project opened an era of (epi)genomic research, and also provided a platform for the development of new sequencing technologies. During and after the project, several sequencing technologies continue to dominate nucleic acid sequencing markets. Currently, Illumina (short-read), PacBio (long-read), and Oxford Nanopore (long-read) are the most popular sequencing technologies. Unlike PacBio or the popular short-read sequencers before it, which, as examples of the second or so-called Next-Generation Sequencing platforms, need to synthesize when sequencing, nanopore technology directly sequences native DNA and RNA molecules. Nanopore sequencing, therefore, avoids converting mRNA into cDNA molecules, which not only allows for the sequencing of extremely long native DNA and full-length RNA molecules but also document modifications that have been made to those native DNA or RNA bases. In this review on direct DNA sequencing and direct RNA sequencing using Oxford Nanopore technology, we focus on their development and application achievements, discussing their challenges and future perspective. We also address the problems researchers may encounter applying these approaches in their research topics, and how to resolve them.
