Immunofluorescence-Based Method to Assess Cancer Biomarker in the Hypoxic Region of the Tumor.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
The development of novel imaging technologies allows the analysis of the expression and spatial distribution of multiple markers simultaneously, providing necessary information about a cellular identity and the surrounding microenvironment. This chapter describes the utilization of immunofluorescence to identify such biomarkers in fixed tissue from prostate cancer (PCa) xenografts. One such marker detectable by immunofluorescence is pimonidazole, which has been utilized to locate areas of low oxygen (hypoxia). Pimonidazole, in combination with other biomarkers, could be utilized to identify "niches" in the microenvironment harboring more aggressive cells both within and outside hypoxic areas. Specifically, we describe the method to use pimonidazole for the identification of hypoxic regions in PCa xenograft tumors along with CPT1A (carnitine palmitoyltransferase 1A) expression, an indicator of β-oxidation. This approach could be useful to characterize various biomarkers in the complex hypoxic tumor microenvironment.
