Frozen tissue preparation for high-resolution multiplex histological analyses of human brain specimens.
Article in Journal of neuro-oncology, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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 availability of a comprehensive tissue library is essential for elucidating the function and pathology of human brains. Considering the irreplaceable status of the formalin-fixation-paraffin-embedding (FFPE) preparation in routine pathology and the advantage of ultra-low temperature to preserve nucleic acids and proteins for multi-omics studies, these methods have become major modalities for the construction of brain tissue libraries. Nevertheless, the use of FFPE and snap-frozen samples is limited in high-resolution histological analyses because the preparation destroys tissue integrity and/or many important cellular markers. To overcome these limitations, we detailed a protocol to prepare and analyze frozen human brain samples that is particularly suitable for high-resolution multiplex immunohistological studies. As an alternative, we offered an optimized procedure to rescue snap-frozen tissues for the same purpose. Importantly, we provided a guideline to construct libraries of frozen tissue with minimal effort, cost and space. Taking advantage of this new tissue preparation modality to nicely preserve the cellular information that was otherwise damaged using conventional methods and to effectively remove tissue autofluorescence, we described the high-resolution landscape of the cellular composition in both lower-grade gliomas and glioblastoma multiforme samples. Our work showcases the great value of fixed frozen tissue in understanding the cellular mechanisms of CNS functions and abnormalities.
