Cryo-Electron Tomography of the Mammalian Synapse.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. An erratum has been issued. 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
Characterizing the detailed structure of the mammalian synapse is of crucial importance to understand its mechanisms of function. Here I describe a protocol to study synaptic architecture by cryo-electron tomography (cryo-ET), a powerful electron microscopy technique that enables 3D visualization of unstained, fully hydrated cellular structures at molecular resolution. The protocol focuses on purified synaptic terminals ("synaptosomes"), currently the most suitable preparation to analyze mammalian synaptic architecture by cryo-ET.
