Rapid immunostaining method for three-dimensional volume imaging of biological tissues by magnetic force-induced focusing of the electric field.
Article in Brain structure & function, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
Recent surges in tissue clearing technology have greatly advanced 3-dimensional (3D) volume imaging. Cleared tissues need to be stained with fluorescence probes for imaging but the current staining methods are too laborious and inefficient for thick 3D samples, which impedes the broad application of clearing technology. To overcome these limitations, we developed an advanced staining platform named EFIC in which a magnetic force focuses the electric field by bending it onto the sample. Such that EFIC applies a significantly lower electric field to maintain nanoscale structural integrity while effectively drives staining probes into pre-cleared 3D samples. We found that EFIC achieved a rapid and uniform staining of various proteins and vascular networks of the brain as well as other organs over the entire depth of imaging. EFIC stained tau deposits and the vascular structure in the post-mortem human brain of Alzheimer's disease and intracerebral hemorrhage, respectively, enabling quantitative analysis. The effectiveness of EFIC was further extended by the successful staining of various targets in non-cleared 3D brain samples. Together, EFIC represents a versatile and reliable staining platform for rapidly analyzing 3D molecular signatures and can be applied to sectioning-free 3D histopathology for diagnostic purposes.
