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

backgroundDetection methods for GMO events are required because of regulatory compliance requirements. Efficient detection and quantification of GMO events saves time and resources. Multiplex digital PCR (dPCR) allows detection and quantification of more than one GMO event at the same time.

objectiveThe study used two tetraplex droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) assays for the detection of 19 soybean GMO events.

methodsTwo multiplex dPCR assays were developed and optimized for the detection of 19 soybean GMO events. The first tetraplex ddPCR assay contained four element-specific targets commonly found in GMO plants (P-35S, T-nos, tE9, and Pat). The second event-specific tetraplex ddPCR assay targeted four soybean GMO events that are not detected with the element-specific tetraplex ddPCR (CV127, DP305423, MON87701, and MON87751).

resultsThe element-specific tetraplex ddPCR assay detected all the expected 15 soybean GMO events. The element-specific tetraplex ddPCR assay also detected selected soybean GMO events at the 0.01% level. The event-specific tetraplex ddPCR assay was successfully used to quantify the four soybean GMO events at the 0.1, 1, 2, and 5% levels. The event-specific tetraplex ddPCR assay also detected the four soybean GMO events at the 0.01% level.

conclusionsThe two tetraplex ddPCR assays can be used for the detection of 19 soybean GMO events. HIGHLIGHTS: An element-specific tetraplex ddPCR assay was used to detect 15 soybean GMO events, and an event-specific tetraplex ddPCR assay was used to detect and quantify four soybean GMO events that are not detected by the element-specific ddPCR assay.
