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

backgroundTandem repeats are specific sequences in genomic DNA repeated in tandem that are present in all organisms. Among the subcategories of TRs we have Satellite repeats, that is divided into macrosatellites, minisatellites, and microsatellites, being the last two of specific interest because they can identify polymorphisms between organisms due to their instability. Currently, most mining tools focus on Simple Sequence Repeats (SSR) mining, and only a few can identify SSRs in the coding regions.

resultsWe developed a microsatellite mining software called SATIN (Micro and Mini SATellite IdentificatioN tool) based on a new sliding window algorithm written in C and Python. It represents a new approach to SSR mining by addressing the limitations of existing tools, particularly in coding region SSR mining. SATIN is available at https://github.com/labgm/SATIN.git . It was shown to be the second fastest for perfect and compound SSR mining. It can identify SSRs from coding regions plus SSRs with motif sizes bigger than 6. Besides the SSR mining, SATIN can also analyze SSRs polymorphism on coding-regions from pre-determined groups, and identify SSRs differentially abundant among them on a per-gene basis. To validate, we analyzed SSRs from two groups of Escherichia coli (K12 and O157) and compared the results with 5 known SSRs from coding regions. SATIN identified all 5 SSRs from 237 genes with at least one SSR on it.

conclusionsThe SATIN is a novel microsatellite search software that utilizes an innovative sliding window technique based on a numerical list for repeat region search to identify perfect, and composite SSRs while generating comprehensible and analyzable outputs. It is a tool capable of using files in fasta or GenBank format as input for microsatellite mining, also being able to identify SSRs present in coding regions for GenBank files. In conclusion, we expect SATIN to help identify potential SSRs to be used as genetic markers.
