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

High-resolution structures of biomolecules can be obtained using single-particle cryo-electron microscopy (SPA cryo-EM), and the rapidly growing number of structures solved by this method is encouraging more researchers to utilize this technique. As with other structural biology methods, sample preparation for an SPA cryo-EM data collection requires some expertise and an understanding of the strengths and limitations of the technique in order to make sensible decisions in the sample-preparation process. In this article, common strategies and pitfalls are described and practical advice is given to increase the chances of success when starting an SPA cryo-EM project.
