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

Cerebral vascular dynamics are critical to maintain brain homeostasis, and the fenestrated capillaries of the hypophysis (also known as the pituitary) exhibit unique structural and functional features that support brain-to-periphery neuroendocrine communication. Here, we present a protocol for live imaging of the dynamics of blood flow velocity, capillary diameter, and permeability of the hypophyseal vasculature in awake zebrafish larvae. We describe steps for two-photon microscopy-based data acquisition and the subsequent procedure for quantitative analysis of these vascular parameters. For complete details on the use and execution of this protocol, please refer to Rajamannar et al.
