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

DNA-point accumulation for imaging at nanoscale topography (DNA-PAINT) can image fixed biological specimens with nanometer resolution and absolute stoichiometry. In living systems, however, the usage of DNA-PAINT has been limited due to high salt concentration in the buffer required for specific binding of the imager to the docker attached to the target. Here, we used multiple binding motifs of the docker, from 2 to 16, to accelerate the binding speed of the imager under physiological buffer conditions without compromising spatial resolution and maintaining the basal level homeostasis during the measurement. We imaged endogenous α-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid receptor (AMPAR) in cultured neurons-critical proteins involved in nerve communication-by DNA-PAINT in 3-dimensions using a monovalent single-chain variable fragment (scFv) to the GluA1 subunit of AMPAR. We found a heterogeneous distribution of synaptic AMPARs: ≈60% are immobile, primarily in nanodomains, defined as AMPARs that are within 0.3 μm of the Homer1 protein in the postsynaptic density; the other ∼40% of AMPARs have restricted mobility and trajectory.
