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

A novel technique, termed matrix coating assisted by an electric field (MCAEF), for enhancing tissue imaging by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI-MS) was developed in this study. In this technique a static and uniform electric field is applied to sliced tissue sections during matrix spray-coating, resulting in the enrichment of positively or negatively chargeable analytes in the MALDI matrix layer. Experimental results show that MCAEF not only increased the sensitivity of lipid and protein detection across the board in the subsequent MALDI-MS analyses, but also resulted in successful imaging of a larger number of analytes. MALDI imaging enhancement with MCAEF was observed for various tissues (rat liver, rat brain, and porcine adrenal gland) and with different MALDI matrices (
