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

Fluorescence microscopy is a broadly used technique within a variety of different fields, including life sciences and medical research, and its quantitative aspects are becoming emphasized. The challenge now lies in improving the accuracy and precision of the measurements obtained from fluorescence microscopy. Improving these will facilitate the comparison of results between different instruments/institutions and therefore ensure the reproducibility of results. In this review, recent standardization procedures, including the benchmarking of the instrument performance and the standardization of the image itself, as well as the reference materials for calibration are summarized, and an overview of the advances in fluorescence microscopy standardization and the current limitations are presented. A procedure for the comparison of the image data obtained using different instruments, by different analysts and/or at different times, should be developed to improve the standardization of this data. The standardization of image data would lead to the development of new applications of fluorescence microscopy not only in academic research but also in regulatory science.
