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 loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP) technique is a great alternative to PCR-based methods, as it is fast, easy to use and works with high sensitivity and specificity without the need for expensive instruments. However, one of the limitations of LAMP is difficulty in achieving the simultaneous detection of several targets in a single tube, as the methodologies that allow this rely on fluorogenic probes containing specific target sequences, complicating their adaptation and the optimization of assays. Here, we summarize different methods for the development of multiplex LAMP assays based on sequence-specific detection, illustrated with a schematic representation of the technique, and evaluate their practical application based on the real-time detection and quantification of results, the possibility to visualize the results at a glance, the prior stabilization of reaction components, promoting the point-of-care use, the maximum number of specific targets amplified, and the validation of the technique in clinical samples. The various LAMP multiplexing methodologies differ in their operating conditions and mechanism. Each methodology has its advantages and disadvantages, and the choice among them will depend on specific application interests.
