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

Single-particle tracking (SPT) was used to determine the mobility characteristics of MHC (major histocompatibility complex) class I molecules at the surface of HeLa cells at 22 degrees C and on different time scales. MHC class I was labeled using the Fab fragment of a monoclonal antibody (W6/32), covalently bound to either R-phycoerythrin or fluorescent microspheres, and the particles were tracked using high-sensitivity fluorescence imaging. Analysis of the data for a fixed time interval suggests a reasonable fit to a random diffusion model. The best fit values of the diffusion coefficient D decreased markedly, however, with increasing time interval, demonstrating the existence of anomalous diffusion. Further analysis of the data shows that the diffusion is anomalous over the complete time range investigated, 4-300 s. Fitting the results obtained with the R-phycoerythrin probe to D = D0talpha-1, where Do is a constant and t is the time, gave D0 = (6.7 +/- 4.5) x 10(-11) cm2 s-1 and alpha = 0.49 +/- 0.16. Experiments with fluorescent microspheres were less reproducible and gave slower anomalous diffusion. The R-phycoerythrin probe is considered more reliable for fluorescent SPT because it is small (11 x 8 nm) and monovalent. The type of motion exhibited by the class I molecules will greatly affect their ability to migrate in the plane of the membrane. Anomalous diffusion, in particular, greatly reduces the distance a class I molecule can travel on the time scale of minutes. The present data are discussed in relation to the possible role of diffusion and clustering in T-cell activation.
