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

Microhaplotypes (MHs) are widely accepted as powerful markers in forensic studies. They have the advantage of both short tandem repeats (STRs) and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), with no stutter and amplification bias, short fragments and amplicons, low mutation and recombination rates, and high polymorphisms. In this study, we constructed a panel of 50 MHs that are distributed on 21 chromosomes and analyzed them using the Multiseq multiple polymerase chain reaction (multi-PCR) targeted capture sequencing protocol based on the massively parallel sequencing (MPS) platform. The sizes of markers and amplicons ranged between 11-81 bp and 123-198 bp, respectively. The sensitivity was 0.25 ng, and the calling results were consistent with Sanger sequencing and the Integrative Genomics Viewer (IGV). It showed measurable polymorphism among sequenced 137 Southwest Chinese Han individuals. No significant deviations in the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium (HWE) and linkage disequilibrium (LD) were found at all MHs after Bonferroni correction. Furthermore, the specificity was 1:40 for simulated two-person mixtures, and the detection rates of highly degraded single samples and mixtures were 100% and 93-100%, respectively. Moreover, animal DNA testing was incomplete and low depth. Overall, our MPS-based 50-plex MH panel is a powerful forensic tool that provides a strong supplement and enhancement for some existing panels.
