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

Dry blood spot (DBS) technology has been widely used since the 1960's for the detection of protein biomarkers associated with various disease states. In this manuscript we report a revised approach using DBS samples to extract total RNA for use in downstream multiplex RNA detection methodology (Nanostring). To accomplish this objective, we have used commercially available supplies, kits, and equipment to ensure that the procedure described in this report can be adopted by any laboratory. The methods described in this report allow for the extraction of high-quality, total RNA from a minimal volume (∼200 µl) of DBS spots. The isolated RNA can be analyzed using a multiplex, Nanostring system to yield results for up to 800 RNA targets. Additional bioinformatics and pathway annotation can be conducted to determine changes in biological signaling pathways. © 2023 Wiley Periodicals LLC.
