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

Tissue clearing techniques turn tissue transparent through a series of chemical and physical treatments. They have provided a useful tool for three-dimensional (3-D) imaging to study tissue spatial organization and interactions. Many tissue clearing methods have been developed in recent years. Each method has its own application range depending on the purposes of the study. Three criteria for selecting an appropriate clearing method include clearing transparency, fluorescence preservation, and broad tissue applicability. PEG-associated solvent system (PEGASOS) emerged recently as a solvent-based tissue clearing method capable of rendering diverse tissues highly transparent while preserving fluorescence. Combined with vascular labeling techniques, PEGASOS method enables 3-D visualization of vasculature in whole tissues at subcellular resolution. Here, we describe the standard PEGASOS passive immersion protocol and several compatible vascular labeling techniques. Methods of 3-D imaging, data processing, and annotations are also briefly introduced.
