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 fluorescent dyes Hoechst (HO) and Chromomycin A3 (CA3) are commonly used for bivariate flow karyotyping to distinguish individual chromosomes from one another based on differences in base composition and DNA content. However, analysis of chromosomes using this fluorescent dye combination requires a flow cytometer equipped with lasers of specific wavelengths and higher power than is typical of conventional flow cytometers. This unit presents a chromosome staining technique with a dye combination of DAPI and propidium iodide (PI). Chromosomes stained using this dye combination can be analyzed on conventional flow cytometers equipped with a typical configuration of lasers and optics. © 2023 The Authors.
