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

Formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded (FFPE) samples represent the gold standard for storage of pathology samples. Here we describe pathology tissue chromatin immunoprecipitation (PAT-ChIP), a technique for extraction and high-throughput analysis, by techniques such as ChIP-seq, of chromatin derived from FFPE samples. Technically, the main challenge of PAT-ChIP is the preparation of good-quality chromatin from FFPE samples. Here we provide a detailed explanation of the methodology used, the choice of reagents and the troubleshooting steps required to establish a robust chromatin preparation procedure. Other steps have also been adapted from existing techniques to optimize their use for PAT-ChIP-seq. The protocol requires 4 d from the start to the end of the PAT-ChIP procedure. PAT-ChIP provides, for the first time, the chance to perform analyses of histone modifications and transcription factor binding on a genome-wide scale using patient-derived FFPE samples. This technique therefore allows the immediate use of pathology archives (even those that are several years old) for epigenetic analyses and the identification of candidate epigenetic biomarkers or targets.
