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

Digital PCR enables the high precision, absolute quantification of nucleic acid target sequences through volumetrically defined partitioning. This precision, coupled with the removal of PCR efficiency biases and the need for a standard curve, has instituted its widespread adoption over other quantitative methods. Digital PCR is particularly well suited for precise copy counting of chromosome numbers in cells, making it a viable alternative to traditional karyotyping in many instances. Here we describe a multicolor multiplex digital PCR method of screening ES cell clones for aneuploidy for cheaper and swifter validation. This method can also be easily applied to other in vitro cellular models that require accurate analysis for copy number variations.
