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

Immunofluorescence microscopy of cultured cells often gives poor preservation of delicate structures. We have obtained dramatically improved results with a simple modification of a standard protocol. Cells growing on a coverslip are rapidly dehydrated in a cold organic solvent and then are rehydrated in a solution containing a homobifunctional crosslinker. The crosslinking reaction stabilizes cellular structures during subsequent incubation and wash steps, usually without compromising antigenicity. This method reproducibly yields high-quality images of endomembrane compartments and cytoskeletal elements.
