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

Objective: The real-time PCR system is one of the most powerful research tools available in the life sciences field. The aim of this study was to preliminarily evaluate the analytical performance of QuantStudio 1 Plus real-time PCR system (QS 1 plus) for clinical procedures. Methods: The consistency of QS 1 plus with the reference system in terms of various clinical procedures was evaluated. For qualitative data, the Kappa test was used to analyze the agreement of the results. For the quantitative data, Passing-Bablok regression analysis and Bland-Altman plot analysis were used to assess the concordance between QS 1 plus and the reference instrument. Results: Passing-Bablok regression showed an excellent agreement between the QS 1 plus and LC 480 systems for HBV DNA quantification (y = 0.928 + 0.970x), whereas Bland-Altman plot analysis showed very small mean deviations between the two systems. The QS 1 plus yielded perfectly consistent results with the reference instrument for methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) C677T melting curve genotyping analysis, MTHFR C677T genotyping analysis, Norovirus RNA negative/positive analysis, influenza B virus (Flu B) RNA negative/positive analysis, Conclusions: Our research has proven that QS 1 plus is adaptable to most test procedures in the clinical laboratory. This may provide the basis for its further application.
