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

The nucleolus is a multi-compartment, non-membrane-bound organelle within the nucleus. Nucleolar assembly is influenced by proteins capable of phase separation. Xenopus laevis oocytes contain hundreds of large nucleoli that provide experimental access for nucleoli that is unavailable in other systems. Here we detail methods to streamline the in vivo analysis of the compartmentalization of nucleolar proteins that are suspected of phase separation. The nucleolus is the main hub of ribosome biogenesis and here we present data supporting the division of proteins into nucleolar domains based on their function in ribosome biogenesis. We also describe the use of vital dyes such as Hoechst 33342 and Thioflavin T in nucleolar staining. Additionally, we quantify nucleolar morphology changes induced by heat shock and actinomycin D treatments. We suggest these approaches will be valuable in a variety of studies that seek to better understand the nucleolus, particularly those regarding phase separation. These approaches may also be instructive for other studies on phase separation, especially in the nucleus.
