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

Tissue localization of immune cells is critical to the study of disease processes in mouse models of human diseases. However, immunohistochemistry (IHC) for immune cell phenotyping in mouse tissue sections presents specific technical challenges. For example, CD4 and CD8 have been difficult to detect using IHC on formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded mouse tissue, prompting alternative methods. We investigated the use of formalin-free zinc-salt fixation (ZN) and optimized IHC protocols for detecting a panel of immune cell-related markers (CD3, CD4, CD8, Foxp3, B220, F4/80, CD68, and major histocompatibility complex [MHC] class-I, MHC class-II, and Gr-1). The IHC results for these markers were compared on mouse spleen tissue treated with neutral buffered formalin (NBF) or ZN with or ZN without antigen retrieval (AR). Whereas CD4 and CD8 were not detected in NBF-treated tissue, all markers were detected in ZN-treated tissue without AR. Thus, the use of ZN treatment for IHC staining can be a good tool for studying immunoreactive lesions in tissues.
