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

The prerequisite for successful HLA genotyping is the integrity of the large allele reference database IPD-IMGT/HLA. Consequently, it is in the laboratories' best interest that the data quality of submitted novel sequences is high. However, due to its long and variable length, the gene HLA-DRB1 presents the biggest challenge and as of today only 16% of the HLA-DRB1 alleles in the database are characterized in full length. To improve this situation, we developed a protocol for long-range PCR amplification of targeted HLA-DRB1 alleles. By subsequently combining both long-read and short-read sequencing technologies, our protocol ensures phased and error-corrected sequences of reference grade quality. This dual redundant reference sequencing (DR2S) approach is of particular importance for correctly resolving the challenging repeat regions of DRB1 intron 1. Until today, we used this protocol to characterize and submit 384 full-length HLA-DRB1 sequences to IPD-IMGT/HLA.
