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

Resolving the complexity of the human brain at the level of single cells is essential to gaining an understanding of the immense diversity of cell types and functional states in both healthy and diseased brains. To exploit fully the technologies available for such studies, one must extract and isolate pure nuclei from unfixed postmortem tissue while preserving the molecules to be interrogated. Currently, nuclei are necessary substitutes for individual brain cells, since myriad cell types/sub-types constituting the human brain are embedded within the neuropil-a complex milieu of interconnected cells, processes, and synapses-which precludes intact and selective isolation of single brain cells. Here, we describe a protocol for the extraction and purification of intact single nuclei from frozen human brain tissue along with modifications to accommodate numerous downstream analyses, particularly for transcriptomic applications.
