Fiji-Based Tool for Rapid and Unbiased Analysis of SA-β-Gal Activity in Cultured Cells.
Article in Biomolecules, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 11 papers.
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.
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
Normal cells under stressful conditions such as DNA damage or excessive mitogenic signaling may undergo senescence, which is associated with cell cycle arrest and induction of a proinflammatory phenotype. Accumulation of senescent cells may contribute to the shortening of the life span by accelerating aging and promoting chronic diseases. Cytochemical detection of the senescence-associated β-galactosidase (SA-β-gal) activity with 5-bromo-4-chloro-3-indolyl β-D-galactopyranoside (X-gal) is a widely recognised marker of cell senescence. However, its simplicity and cost effectiveness lead to limitations in quantification, which is usually limited to manual counting of the positive cells. In order to address those limitations, we developed a Fiji-based macro extension that performs automatic and unbiased analysis of the integrated density of SA-β-gal specific signal. Our tool is not only faster than manual counting but also provides extra resolution compared to the manual methods. Our macro extension could be a valuable tool in any senescence research laboratory.
