Semi-Automated Analysis of Lymph Node Immune and Fibroblast Architecture From Immunofluorescent Images.
Article in Current protocols, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
Tissues are highly ordered structures, with cellular localization essential to the optimal function of the tissue. In lymph nodes the spatial arrangement of immune cells and their associated with stromal cell architecture is essential for the generation of optimal immune responses. Circumstances such as aging and chronic disease can alter lymph node architecture in a manner that impacts immune function. Immunologists have developed many tools for analyzing the cellular content of lymphoid tissue, with flow cytometry a central workhorse in the field. While flow cytometry is a powerful high-throughput tool for analyzing multiple cell types in a tissue, it cannot assess where those cells are located. Imaging, on the other hand, is relatively low throughput, with objective image analysis often presenting a significant hurdle for many immunologists. Here we describe two analysis tools built in Fiji (ImageJ) that semi-automate the analysis of lymph node spatial architecture, can be adapted to different antibody staining panels, and are straightforward to implement with little computational experience. © 2026 The Author(s).
