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

In-resin CLEM of Epon embedded samples can greatly simplify the correlation of fluorescent images with electron micrographs. The usefulness of this technique is limited at present by the low number of fluorescent proteins that resist CLEM processing. Additionally, no study has reported the possibility of two-color in-resin CLEM of Epon embedded cells. In this study, we screened for monomeric green and red fluorescent proteins that resist CLEM processing. We identified mWasabi, CoGFP variant 0, and mCherry2; two green and one red fluorescent proteins as alternatives for in-resin CLEM. We expressed mitochondria-localized mCherry2 and histone H2B tagged with CoGFP variant 0 in cells. Green and red fluorescence was detected in 100 nm-thin sections of the Epon-embedded cells. In the same thin sections, we correlated the fluorescent signals to mitochondria and the nucleus using a scanning electron microscope. Similar results were obtained when endoplasmic reticulum-localized mCherry2 and histone H2B tagged with CoGFP variant 0 were expressed in the cells. Two-color in-resin CLEM of two cytoplasmic organelles, mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum, was also achieved using mitochondria-localized mCherry2 and endoplasmic reticulum-localized mWasabi. In summary, we report three new fluorescent protein-alternatives suitable for in-resin CLEM of Epon-embedded samples, and achieved Epon-based two-color in-resin CLEM.
