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

This paper reports the sequences of eleven D8S1179 and twenty one D18S51 alleles. The D8S1179 alleles ranged in size from 162 bp to 202 bp and increased in size by regular 4 bp increments. They were shown to possess a compound repeat region composed of the tetranucleotides TCTA and TCTG. Alleles at the D18S51 locus ranged in size from 271 bp to 343 bp and possessed a simple repeat region composed of the tetranucleotide AGAA. The majority of alleles increased in size by 4 bp increments corresponding to the addition of one tetranucleotide repeat unit. However, three alleles differed in size by 2 bp from the 4 bp increment as a result of a dinucleotide insertion within the 3' flanking region. These alleles also exhibited an altered 3' flanking sequence in the first four nucleotides following the repeat region. The allelic designations proposed for these loci on the basis of this sequence data are currently being used in a multiplex PCR profiling system employed in a National DNA database in the United Kingdom.
