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

We measured the end-to-end diffusion coefficient of an alkyl chain-linked donor-acceptor pair using the time-resolved frequency-domain decay of the donor. The donor was a rhenium metal-ligand complex with a mean decay time ranging from 2.1 to 7.9 microseconds in the absence of the Texas red acceptor. The decay time was used to measure the donor-to-acceptor distance distribution and the mutual diffusion coefficient. Using this long lifetime donor, it was easily possible to determine a diffusion coefficient near 2 x 10(-8) cm2/s and diffusion coefficients as low as 1.3 x 10(-9) cm2/s were measurable. Such long lifetime donors should be valuable for measuring the flexing of peptides on the microsecond timescale, domain motions of proteins and lateral diffusion in membranes. The availability of microsecond decay time luminophores now allows luminescence spectroscopy to be useful generally for studies of microsecond dynamics of biological macromolecules.
