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

In situ hybridization (ISH) is a powerful method for analyzing gene expression patterns in tissue sections and whole-mount specimens. Three-dimensional (3D) imaging of ISH signals helps to understand the gene expression patterns in the complex structure of developing organs. This chapter describes the protocol for creating 3D images of ISH signals in a cost-effective and time-efficient manner using the correlative microscopy and block-face imaging (CoMBI) system. A unique feature of the CoMBI system is the ability to obtain both serial block-face images and sections as needed for preferential staining, such as hematoxylin and eosin staining. Correlating section images and 3D data helps to annotate gene expression patterns and understand the anatomy of developing organs. We describe the protocol for the sample preparation (ISH and embedding), acquisition of serial block-face images, and image processing to create 3D images.
