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

Experiments that optically probe the translational motions and internal conformational transitions of biological macromolecules have the potential to enable mechanistic studies of biochemical processes in living cells. This work presents a novel "phase-selective" approach to fluorescence fluctuation spectroscopy that simultaneously monitors protein conformational transitions and nanometer center-of-mass displacements. Polarization- and intensity-modulated photoexcitation is combined with phase-sensitive signal detection to monitor the collective coordinate fluctuations from a large population of fluorescent molecules (N approximately 10(6)). Test experiments are performed on DsRed, a tetrameric complex of fluorescent protein subunits. Thermally induced conformational transitions of the complex lead to fluctuations in the optical dipolar coupling between adjacent chromophore sites. Polarization-resolved equilibrium fluctuation trajectories provide the raw data necessary to determine time-correlation functions and probability distributions of coordinate displacements, which characterize conformational transitions of the DsRed complex.
