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 application of an automatic image analyzer (TAS, Leitz, Wetzlar) for determination of labeling density in protein A-gold labeled sections is described. Electron micrographs of rat liver labeled with 12 nm gold particles for peroxisomal enzymes are placed on the macrounit of TAS and the images of peroxisomes on TAS-monitor are contoured with a light pen. The instrument measures the surface of the contoured areas. Based on their gray level, the gold particles over the peroxisome are detected automatically and counted and the labeling density for each peroxisome is calculated.
