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

Flow cytometry is an advanced technology for efficient, rapid, specific and multi-parameter analysis of single cells in various basic research fields including cytobiology, immunology, genetic, hematology and other basic research. Beclin-1 protein is an important indicator in monitoring autophagic activity. However, quantitative flow cytometry had been rarely reported till now to be applied in the detection of Beclin-1 expression. The present study was aimed to establish a flow cytometric method for quantitative detection of Beclin-1 expression by employing the autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine as the control. A multi-parameter optimal method for Beclin-1 protein staining is as follows. 2 % bovine serum albumin in phosphate buffered saline was used for sample block. Concentration of primary antibody was 0.004 μg/μL. Samples were incubated at room temperature (25 °C) for 30 min. The prepared samples had better to be detected immediately or to be stored at 4 °C and detected within 6 h, otherwise the samples should be fixed in 1 % paraformaldehyde storing at 4 °C and detected within 3 d. Furthermore, we employed the immunohistochemistry to validate the method in vivo, the results confirmed flow cytometric method. The established flow cytometric analysis for Beclin-1 protein has the advantage of simpleness, speediness, sensitivity and reproducibility.
