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

Coupling genetically encoded target sequences with specific and selective labeling strategies has made it possible to utilize fluorescence spectroscopy in complex mixtures to investigate the structure, function, and dynamics of proteins. Thus, there is a growing need for a repertoire of such labeling approaches to deploy based on a given application and to utilize in combination with one another by orthogonal reactivity. We have developed a simple approach to synthesize a fluorescent probe that binds to a poly-histidine sequence. The amino group of cysteine was converted into nitrilotriacetate to create a metal-chelating cysteine molecule, Cys-nitrilotriacetate. Two Cys-nitrilotriacetate molecules were then cross-linked using dibromobimane to generate a fluorophore capable of binding a His-tag on a protein, NTA(2)-BM. NTA(2)-BM is a potential fluorophore for selective tagging of proteins in vivo.
