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

In this article, we used PCR analysis with arbitrary primers (AP-PCR) to screen for overlapping bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clones and assembly of contigs. A rice BAC library with three genome equivalents was used to prepare pooled BAC DNA. Twenty-two arbitrary primers were used to survey the pooled BAC DNAs and individual BAC DNAs. Each primer identified 1-10 loci, and the average was 4.4 loci. There were 1-5 overlapping clones in each locus, and the average was 2.5 clones. A total of 245 BAC clones were identified as overlapping by AP-PCR and the identities were confirmed by DNA-DNA hybridization. The 245 BAC clones were then assembled into 80 contigs and 17 single-clone loci. The results indicated that PCR analysis with arbitrary primers is a powerful tool in screening for overlapping BAC clones with high accuracy and efficiency. The use of AP-PCR analysis should speed up the construction of physical maps of the plant and animal genomes, as well as the rice genome.
