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

backgroundXenopus embryos and tadpoles are versatile models for embryological, cell biological, and regenerative studies. Genomic and transcriptomic approaches have been increasingly employed in these frogs. Most of these genome-wide analyses have profiled tissues in bulk, but there are many scenarios where isolation of single cells may be advantageous, including isolation of a preferred cell type, or generation of a single-cell suspension for applications such as scRNA-Seq.

resultsHere we present a protocol for the disaggregation of complex tail and limb bud tissue, and use cell type-specific fluorescence in transgenic X. tropicalis appendages to isolate specific cell populations using fluorescence activated cell sorting (FACS). Our protocol addresses a specific challenge in Xenopus embryos and tadpoles: the storage of maternal yolk platelets in each cell, which can introduce light scatter and thereby false positives into FACS analysis.

conclusionsHere we gate against both nontransgenic and ubiquitously transgenic animals to reduce both false positives and false negatives. We use the Xtr.Tg(pax6:GFP;cryga:RFP;actc1:RFP)
