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

The polymerase chain reaction (PCR) is a powerful core molecular biology technique, which when coupled to chain termination sequencing allows gene and DNA sequence information to be derived rapidly. A number of modifications to the basic PCR format have been developed in an attempt to increase amplification efficiency and the specificity of the reaction. We have applied the use of DNA-binding protein, gene 32 protein from bacteriophage T4 (T4gp32) to increase amplification efficiency with a number of diverse templates. In addition, we have found that using single-stranded DNA-binding protein (SSB) or recA protein in DNA sequencing reactions dramatically increases the resolution of sequencing runs. The use of DNA-binding proteins in amplification and sequencing may prove to be generally applicable in improving the yield and quality of a number of templates from various sources.
