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.
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
backgroundThe currently used methods for the detection of methylene tetrahydrofolic acid reductase (MTHFR) C677T single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) are either time-consuming or expensive. In this study, we devised an accurate, rapid and easy-to-use SNP detection system based on fluorescent primers amplification refractory mutation system qPCR, known as FP ARMS-qPCR.
methodsFluorescent primers (FPs) modified by fluorescent dye or quencher near the 3' terminal thymine were designed. The reaction conditions were optimized and the performance was evaluated. Using commercial kits as controls, 242 samples were tested in parallel to verify the feasibility of the FP ARMS-qPCR assay.
resultsWe demonstrated the good sensitivity and specificity of the FP ARMS-qPCR with optimized conditions. The assay was able to accurately distinguish between different SNP sites of MTHFR C677T in less than 2 h using as low as 50 pg of template genomic DNA. Completely consistent genotyping results reveal that FP ARMS-qPCR is concordant with commercial kits.
conclusionWe established a specific, sensitive, and rapid FP ARMS-qPCR method for the detection of MTHFR C677T genotype. This could also serve as a potential diagnostic tool for a variety of diseases.
