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

Bisulfite sequencing (BS-seq) to detect 5-methylcytosine (5mC) is limited by lengthy reaction times, severe DNA damage, overestimation of 5mC level and incomplete C-to-U conversion of certain DNA sequences. We present ultrafast BS-seq (UBS-seq), which uses highly concentrated bisulfite reagents and high reaction temperatures to accelerate the bisulfite reaction by ~13-fold, resulting in reduced DNA damage and lower background noise. UBS-seq allows library construction from small amounts of purified genomic DNA, such as from cell-free DNA or directly from 1 to 100 mouse embryonic stem cells, with less overestimation of 5mC level and higher genome coverage than conventional BS-seq. Additionally, UBS-seq quantitatively maps RNA 5-methylcytosine (m
