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

Accurate genotyping of small insertions and deletions (InDels; <5 bp) remains technically challenging in routine molecular breeding, largely due to the limited resolution of agarose gel electrophoresis and the labor-intensive nature of polyacrylamide-based assays. Here, we present the Tri-Primer Amplification Refractory Mutation System (TP-ARMS), a simple and cost-effective PCR-based strategy that enables high-resolution genotyping of small InDels using standard agarose gels. The TP-ARMS employs a universal reverse primer in combination with two allele-specific forward primers targeting insertion and deletion alleles, respectively. This design allows clear discrimination of homozygous and heterozygous genotypes using a two-tube PCR workflow. The method showed complete concordance with Sanger sequencing in detecting 1-5 bp InDels across multiple crop species, including rice (
