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

Visualization of gene expression at single RNA molecular level represents a great challenge to both imaging technologies and molecular engineering. Here we show a single molecule chromogenic in situ hybridization (smCISH) assay that enables counting and localizing individual RNA molecules in fixed cells and tissue under bright-field microscopy. Our method is based on in situ padlock probe assays directly using RNA as a ligation template and rolling circle amplification combined with enzyme catalyzed chromogenic reaction for amplification product visualization. We show potential applications of our method by detecting gene expression variations in single cells, subcellular localization information of expressed genes, and gene expression heterogeneity in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections. This facile and straightforward method can in principle be applied to any type of RNA molecules in different samples.
