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

Recent advances in super resolution microscopy have enabled imaging at the 10-20 nm scale on a light microscope, providing unprecedented details of native biological structures and processes in intact and hydrated samples. Of the existing strategies, DNA points accumulation in imaging nanoscale topography (DNA-PAINT) affords convenient multiplexing, an important feature in interrogating complex biological systems. A practical limitation of DNA-PAINT, however, has been the slow imaging speed. In its original form, DNA-PAINT imaging of each target takes tens of minutes to hours to complete. To address this challenge, several improved implementations have been introduced. These include DNA-PAINT-ERS (where E = ethylene carbonate; R = repeat sequence; S = spacer), a set of strategies that leads to both accelerated DNA-PAINT imaging speed and improved image quality. With DNA-PAINT-ERS, imaging of typical cellular targets such as microtubules takes only 5-10 min. Importantly, DNA-PAINT-ERS also facilitates multiplexing and can be easily integrated into current workflows for fluorescence staining of biological samples. Here, we provide a detailed, step-by-step guide for fast and multiplexed DNA-PAINT-ERS imaging of fixed and immunostained cells grown on glass substrates as adherent monolayers. The protocol should be readily extended to biological samples of a different format (for example tissue sections) or staining mechanisms (for example using nanobodies). © 2022 Wiley Periodicals LLC.
