Developmental validation of Applied Biosystems YFiler Platinum Casework PCR Amplification Kit.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The YFiler Platinum Casework PCR Amplification Kit is a 6-dye multiplex assay that simultaneously amplifies a set of 38 male-specific, Y-chromosome Short Tandem Repeat (YSTR) markers (DYS576, DYS389I, DYS635, DYS389II, DYS627, DYS549, DYS593, DYS645, DYS460, DYS458, DYS19, YGATAH4, DYS448, DYS391, DYS557, DYS522, DYS456, DYS390, DYS438, DYS392, DYS518, DYS444, DYS533, DYS570, DYS437, DYS385, DYS449, DYS643, DYS596, DYS393, DYS439, DYS481, DYF387S1, DYS527, DYS447), three insertion/deletion polymorphic markers (Yindels: rs771783753, rs759551978, rs199815934), and an internal quality control (IQC) system. When compared to the YFiler Platinum PCR Amplification kit for database samples, YFiler Platinum Casework kit was developed to include an improved Primer Mix incorporating a brighter TED dye, an updated internal quality control system, better resolution of large DNA fragments in Applied Biosystems POP-4 Polymer, and reduced female DNA cross-reactivity. Here, we report the results of the developmental validation study which followed the Scientific Working Group on DNA Analysis Methods (SWGDAM) guidelines and includes data for PCR-based studies, sensitivity, species specificity, stability, precision, reproducibility and repeatability, population concordance, stutter, DNA mixtures, and performance on mock casework samples. The results validate the multiplex design as well as demonstrate the kit's robustness, reliability, and suitability as an assay for human identification with casework DNA samples.
