Effects of different dehydration methods on the preservation of aortic and renal glycocalyx structures in mice.

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
Glycocalyx is located outside the vascular endothelial cells playing an important role in vascular homeostasis. However, lacking efficient detection methods is one of the biggest obstacles to study the glycocalyx. In this study, three dehydration methods were used to compare the preservation of HUVEC, aorta and kidney glycocalyx by transmission electron microscope. The chemical pre-fixation was performed by lanthanum nitrate staining, and the mice aorta and renal glycocalyx were prepared by different dehydration methods such as ethanol gradient, acetone gradient and low temperature dehydration. HUVEC glycocalyx was prepared by acetone gradient and low temperature dehydration. Low temperature dehydration method preserves HUVEC and mice aortic glycocalyx completely, which had a certain thickness and presented a needle-like structure. But for mice kidney, the acetone gradient dehydration preparation method could better preserve the glycocalyx integrity than other two methods. In conclusion, low temperature dehydration method is suitable for HUVEC and aortic glycocalyx preservation, acetone gradient dehydration method is more suitable for kidney glycocalyx preservation.
