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

A cost-effective, viral nucleic acid (NA) isolation kit based on NAxtra magnetic nanoparticles was developed at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology in response to the shortage of commercial kits for isolation of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) RNA during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic. This method showed comparable sensitivity to available kits at significantly reduced cost, making its application for other biological sources an intriguing prospect. Thus, based on this low-cost nucleic acid extraction technology, we developed a simple, low- and high-throughput, efficient method for isolation of high-integrity total NA, DNA and RNA from mammalian cell lines (monolayer) and organoids (3D-cultures). The extracted NA are compatible with downstream applications including (RT-)qPCR and next-generation sequencing. When automated, NA isolation can be performed in 14 min for up to 96 samples, yielding similar quantities to available kits.
