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

Proper protein function in cells, tissues and organisms depends critically on correct protein folding or interaction with partners. Over the last decade, single-molecule FRET (smFRET) has emerged as a powerful tool to probe complex distributions, dynamics, pathways and landscapes in protein folding and binding reactions, leveraging its ability to avoid averaging over an ensemble of molecules. While smFRET was practiced in a two-color form until recently, the last few years have seen the development of enhanced multicolor smFRET methods that provide additional structural information permitting us to probe more complex mechanisms. In this review, we provide a brief introduction to the smFRET technique, then follow with advanced multicolor measurements and end with ongoing methodology developments in microfluidics and protein labeling that are beginning to make these techniques more broadly applicable to answering a number of key questions about folding and binding.
