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

We present here a protocol to assay the centrosome separation events at late-G2 phase of the cell cycle by immunofluorescence microscopy. We describe the steps required for imaging and measurement of inter-centrosome distance. Here, we use GAS2L1 as an example, but the protocol can be used to test any protein for a role in centrosome separation and cohesion. The steps below are specific for hTERT RPE-1 cell lines, but other adherent cell lines (e.g., U2OS, MRC-5) are also amenable for this protocol. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Au et al. (2017) and Au et al. (2020).
