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

The introduction of acrylate resins (Lowicryl K4M, LR White) into electronmicroscopic immunocytochemistry applied to embedded tissue (post-embedding method) has improved the localization of antigens because of a satisfactory preservation of both ultrastructure and antigenicity of tissues. Here we describe a method that allows double staining of intracellular and membranous determinants in ultrathin sections of nervous tissue and cultures of peripheral nervous system cells. Ultrathin sections of the rat central nervous system fixed on uncoated grids were stained first for MBP selectively on the one face, then the opposite face was stained for GFAP using monoclonal antibodies and indirect immunogold staining method (IGS). Cultured Schwann cells induced to express major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II antigens were stained for class II antigens by pre-embedding method then followed by post-embedding IGS for the other intracytoplasmic antigens.
