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

We have used a non-isotopic PCR assay based on the chemiluminescent detection of blotted PCR products (CB-PCR) for two dynamic mutation diseases (Huntington's disease and spinocerebellar ataxia type 1). This gives an accurate sizing of alleles and permits a rapid analysis of at risk persons. The system involves PCR of the samples, separation of alleles on polyacrylamide gels, Southern blotting, and hybridisation with specific primers 3' labelled with fluorescein (F1)-dUTP as probes. CB-PCR retains the isotopic sensitivity for accurate allele determination, avoids isotopic manipulation, and provides the advantages of safety, long term storage of probes, and recycling of hybridisation solutions.
