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

Correlative light and electron microscopy (CLEM) combines light microscopy (LM) of fluorescent samples to ultrastructural analyses by electron microscopy (EM). Pre-embedding CLEM often suffers from inaccurate correlation between LM and EM modalities. Post-embedding CLEM enables precise registration of structures directly on EM sections, but requires fluorescent markers withstanding EM sample preparation, especially osmium tetroxide fixation, dehydration and EPON embedding. Most fluorescent proteins (FPs) lose their fluorescence during such conventional embedding (CE), but synthetic dyes represent promising alternatives as their stability exceeds those of FP. We analyzed various Janelia Fluor dyes and TMR conjugated to ligands for self-labeling enzymes, such as HaloTag, for fluorescence preservation after CE. We show that TMR, JF525, JF549, JFX549 and JFX554 retain fluorescence, with JFX549 and JFX554 yielding best results overall, also allowing integration of high-pressure freezing and freeze substitution. Furthermore, we found the recently published FP StayGold to resist CE, facilitating dual-fluorescence in-resin CLEM.
