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 efficacy of the available genome-walking methods is restricted by low specificity, high background, or composite operations. We herein conceived bridging PCR, an efficient genome-walking approach. Three primers with random sequences, inner walker primer (IWP), bridging primer (BP), and outer walker primer (OWP), are involved in bridging PCR. The BP is fabricated by splicing OWP to the 5'-end of IWP's 5'-part. A bridging PCR set is constituted by three rounds of amplification reactions, sequentially performed by IWP, BP plus OWP, and OWP, respectively pairing with three nested sequence-specific primers (SSP). A non-target product arising from IWP alone undergoes end-lengthening mediated by BP. This modified non-target product is a preferentially formed hairpin between the lengthened ends, instead of binding with shorter OWP. Meanwhile, a non-target product, triggered by SSP alone or SSP plus IWP, is removed by nested SSP. As a result, only the target DNA is accumulated. The efficacy of bridging PCR was validated by walking the
