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

RAPD is a PCR variant that uses a single primer and is performed based on the principle that, as the annealing temperature decreases, the primer finds multiple sequences in the template DNA with which it can hybridize when these sites are close to each other and in opposite orientations, resulting in amplification of the DNA sequence between the sites to produce a template DNA band. The RAPD method has been used for the typing and identification of Aspergillus species, characterization of environmental sources, and the detection of intraspecific and interspecific genetic variability. For this purpose, a wide variety of primers have been used with varying results. Primer OPF-01 has proven helpful in typing Aspergillus spp. and identifying A. fumigatus, as it generates species-specific polymorphic patterns for this fungus. This chapter describes the RAPD method for identifying A. fumigatus with primer OPF-01.
