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 applied HNPP (2-hydroxy-3-naphthoic acid-2'-phenylanilide phosphate) to direct in situ PCR for the routine detection of specific bacterial cells at the single-cell level. PCR was performed on glass slides with digoxigenin-labeled dUTP. The digoxigenin-labeled PCR products were detected with alkaline phosphatase-labeled antidigoxigenin antibody and HNPP which was combined with Fast Red TR. A bright red fluorescent signal was produced from conversion to HNP (dephosphorylated form) by alkaline phosphatase. We used the ECOL DNA primer set for amplification of ribosomal DNA of Escherichia coli to identify cells specifically at the single-cell level in a bacterial mixture. High-contrast images were obtained under an epifluorescence microscope with in situ PCR. By image analysis, E. coli cells in polluted river water also were detected.
