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

We report a protocol for simultaneous triple labelling of intermediate filaments, microtubules and actin filaments. The described procedure offers an optimal preservation of the structure and antigenicity of individual representatives of cytoskeletal elements and is applicable for labelling of tissue samples and cultured cells. Namely, we demonstrate that using this protocol the cytoskeletal elements are well-preserved and detectable in the whole mount urinary bladder tissue pieces, cryosections of the urinary bladder, and in cultured normal and cancer urothelial cells including their delicate intercellular connections such as tunneling nanotubes (TnTs). The protocol uncovers for the first time the co-distribution of actin filaments, intermediate filaments and microtubules in TnTs, which were up to now known as mono- or bi-cytoskeletal structures. Presented triple labelling protocol provides an efficient tool for studying co-distribution of actin filaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules and therefore offers new insights into their cellular and tissue distribution.
