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

Accurate and rapid methods for the detection of DNA damage foci in eukaryotic cells are central to DNA repair studies, which identify differences in DNA repair capacity in cell lines. Such assays have been important in delineating mechanisms of DNA repair in human cells. Previously we were the first to demonstrate the use of imaging flow cytometry for the detection of γ-H2AX foci in cells exposed to ionizing radiation causing the induction of DNA strand breaks. In this report we extend these studies and show an enhancement of foci quantitation and image resolution using next generation imaging flow cytometry with the Amnis Imagestream(X) Mark II. We demonstrate using cell lines derived from normal individuals, and DNA double strand break repair defective cells that the number of foci observed is significantly increased when using 60× as compared to 40× magnification. Also, foci numbers and resolution is further increased with the application of the focus stacking (Extended Depth of Field-EDF) capacity activated. This report represents the first such demonstration of multimagnification and EDF for the enhanced quantitation of DNA damage in cells and provides a level of resolution, which near matches in situ microscopy methods for the detection of γ-H2AX foci.
