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

Electron microscopy (EM) reveals cellular ultrastructure at high definition but faces the challenges of identification of specific subcellular structures and localization of specific macromolecules, whereas fluorescence microscopy (FM) can label and localize specific molecules in cells. Correlative light and electron microscopy (CLEM) combines the advantages of both microscopic techniques. Imaging vitreous hydrated samples at cryogenic temperatures using CLEM enables observations of cellular components of interest and their cellular context in a near-native state. This cryo-CLEM approach is further strengthened by incorporation of superresolution fluorescence microscopy, which can precisely pinpoint targets on electron micrographs. Cryogenic superresolution correlative light and electron microscopy (csCLEM) is an emerging and promising imaging technique that is expected to unveil its full power in ultrastructural studies. The present review describes the logic and principles behind this technique, how the method is implemented, the prospects, and the challenges.
