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

Heteroduplex analysis is commonly used to map homologous sequences in DNA:DNA or DNA:RNA hybrids in spread preparations by electron microscopy. However, the standard procedures are not suitable to detect the orientation of a fragment with a defined sequence in a hybrid molecule. Here, we describe an alternative protocol for the visualization of DNA:DNA "diheteroduplex" structures based on digoxigenin/anti-digoxigenin gold labeling that allows determination of the position and orientation of a fragment. Single-stranded polymerase chain reaction (PCR) generated fragments labeled at their 3' ends are hybridized to double-stranded plasmid DNA. Electron microscopy of spread preparations visualizes the gold label and, in combination with morphometric measurements, it is possible to determine the position and orientation of the fragment with the diheteroduplex molecule.
