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

Frontier structural biology methods are transitioning from analysis of reconstituted macromolecular complexes in vitro to imaging of macromolecular assemblies within the physiological confines of the cell. Preparation of samples for in situ cryoEM analysis requires focused ion beam (FIB) milling or ultramicrotome sectioning, laborious and technically challenging procedures that are low-throughput and require a high degree of technical skill. We have devised a simple approach for cryoEM of nuclear macromolecular complexes that preserves to a high degree their physiological environment while removing the need for thin sectioning of the sample. The method requires only the preparation of nuclear extracts without additional purification or enrichment steps. We applied the method to obtain a 2.3 Å cryoEM structure of nucleosomes visualised directly in the nuclear lysate of human cells.
