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

The small size of ciliary structures that underlies photoreceptor function and inherited ciliopathies requires imaging techniques adapted to visualizing them at the highest possible resolution. In addition to powerful super-resolution imaging modalities, emerging approaches to sample preparation, including expansion microscopy (ExM), can provide a robust route to imaging specific molecules at the nanoscale level in the retina. We describe a protocol for applying ExM to whole retinas in order to achieve nanoscale fluorescence imaging of ciliary markers, including tubulin, CEP290, centrin, and CEP164. The results are consistent with those from other super-resolution fluorescence techniques and reveal new insights into their arrangements with respect to the subcompartments of photoreceptor cilia. This technique is complimentary to other imaging modalities used in retinal imaging, and can be carried out in virtually any laboratory, without the need for expensive specialized equipment.
