Rapid Cycle and Extreme Polymerase Chain Reaction.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
Rapid cycle polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplifies DNA in 10-30 min, while extreme PCR is complete in less than 1 min. These methods do not sacrifice quality for speed; sensitivity, specificity, and yield are equivalent or better than conventional PCR. What is required (and not widely available) is rapid, accurate control of reaction temperature during cycling. Specificity improves with cycling speed, and efficiency can be maintained by increasing polymerase and primer concentrations. Speed is aided by simplicity, dyes that stain double-stranded DNA are less expensive than probes, and one of the simplest polymerases, the deletion mutant KlenTaq, is used throughout. Rapid amplification can be coupled with endpoint melting analysis to verify product identity. Instead of commercial master mixes, detailed formulations for reagents and master mixes compatible with rapid cycle and extreme PCR are described.
