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

Several studies have shown that microsatellite changes can be profiled in the urine to detect bladder cancer. Microsatellite analysis (MSA) of bladder cancer detection requires a comprehensive analysis of up to 15-20 markers based on amplifying and interpreting many individual MSA markers, which can be technically challenging. To develop fast, efficient, standardized, and less costly MSA to detect bladder cancer, we developed three multiplex polymerase chain reaction (PCR) based MSA assays, all of which were analyzed by a genetic analyzer. First, we selected 16 MSA markers based on nine publications. We developed MSA assays based on triplet or three-tube-based multiplex PCR (Triplet MSA assay) using samples from Johns Hopkins University (JHU Sample, first set of samples). In the second set of samples (samples from six cancer patients and fourteen healthy individuals), our Triplet Assay with 15 MSA markers correctly predicted all 6/6 cancer samples to be cancerous and 14/14 healthy samples to be healthy. Although we could improve our report with more clinical information from patient samples and an increased number of cancer patients, our overall results suggest that our Triplet MSA Assay combined with a genetic analyzer is a potentially time- and cost-effective genetic assay for bladder cancer detection and has potential use as a dependable assay in patient care.
