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 studied the dipolar relaxation of the surfactant-water interface in reverse micelles of AOT-water in isooctane in the nanosecond and subnanosecond time ranges by incorporating the amphipathic solvatochromic fluorescent probes LAURDAN and TOE. A negative component was observed in the fluorescence decays in the red edge of the emission spectrum-the signature of an excited state reaction-with LAURDAN but not for TOE. The deconvolution of the transient reconstructed spectra of LAURDAN based on a model constructed by adding together three log-normal Gaussian equations made it possible to separate the specific dynamic solvent response from the intramolecular excited state reactions of the probe. The deconvoluted spectrum of lowest energy displayed the largest Stokes shift. This spectral shift was described by unimodal kinetics on the nanosecond timescale, whereas the relaxation kinetics of water-soluble probes have been reported to be biphasic (on the subnanosecond and nanosecond timescales) due to the heterogeneous distribution of these probes in the water pool. Most of this spectral shift probably resulted from water relaxation as it was highly sensitive to the water to surfactant molar ratio (w(0)) (60-65 nm at w(0) = 20-30). A small part of this spectral shift (9 nm at w(0) = 0) probably resulted from dipolar interaction with the AOT polar headgroup. The measured relaxation time values were in the range of the rotational motion of the AOT polar headgroup region as assessed by LAURDAN and TOE fluorescence anisotropy decays.
