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 random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) assay utilizes the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and short primers of arbitrary nucleotide sequence to amplify DNA. In this study, the RAPD assay was used to identify and map polymorphic markers in the AgResearch International Mapping Flock (IMF) sheep pedigrees. Sires and dams of eight of the full-sib IMF pedigrees were screened with 131 different 10-mer oligonucleotide primers. An average of 85 RAPD polymorphisms was identified between each parental pair, and 53 markers were contributed to the AgResearch IMF collaboration. Forty-five of the RAPD markers were mapped in the AgResearch IMF genetic linkage map, and at least one marker was located on 17 of the 26 autosomes and both sex chromosomes. Three lines of evidence were used to check for the homology of scored polymorphisms in different pedigrees, pedigree evaluation, segregation analysis, and Southern blot analysis. These results demonstrate that the RAPD assay is a powerful approach for identifying polymorphisms that can be used as markers for constructing a sheep genetic linkage map.
