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

Multiplexed super-resolution microscopy enables spatial proteomics at single-protein resolution, but current methods often depend on secondary labels, complicating implementation and limiting throughput. We introduce a streamlined approach that combines speed-optimized DNA-PAINT sequences with their mirror-image analogs (left-handed DNA), enabling rapid and efficient 12-plex imaging. Validated on synthetic and cellular benchmarks, our method maps dense neuronal interactomes in 3D with 15 nm spatial resolution across a 200 × 200 µm
