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

Advances in design and use of light-sensitive and light-emitting sensors have facilitated observation, measurement, and control of neuronal activities. Viruses are effective vectors for delivery of these valuable research tools to mammalian brains. Recombinant viruses are optimized to mediate regulatable, long-term, and cell-specific gene expression. Here, we describe production methods for three of the most commonly used types of recombinant viruses in neurobiology research: adeno-associated virus (AAV), retrovirus/lentivirus, and glycoprotein-deleted rabies virus. These viral constructs are frequently used for calcium imaging or to deliver neural tracers and optogenetic tools. Popular constructs are readily obtained commercially; however, customized virus production through commercial sources is time consuming and costly. This article aims to provide readers with detailed technical information for rapid production and validation of high-quality viral particles in a laboratory setting while highlighting advantages and limitations of each viral type. © 2019 by John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
