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

In the so-called surface microscopy, serial block-face imaging is combined with mechanic sectioning to obtain volumetric imaging. While mapping a resin-embedded green fluorescent protein (GFP)-labeled specimen, it has been recently reported that an alkaline buffer is used to chemically reactivate the protonated GFP molecules, and thus improve the signal-to-noise ratio. In such a procedure, the image quality is highly affected by the penetration rate of a solution. We propose a reliable penetration model to describe the penetration process of the solution into the resin. The experimental results are consistent with the parameters predicted using this model. Thus, this model provides a valuable theoretical explanation and aids in optimizing the system parameters for mapping resin-embedded GFP biological samples.
