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

The speed and accuracy of Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) measurements can be improved by rapidly alternating excitation wavelengths between the donor and acceptor fluorophore. We demonstrate FRET efficiency measurements based on a fiber laser and photonic crystal fiber as the source for two-photon excitation (TPE). This system offers the potential for rapid wavelength switching with the benefits of axial optical sectioning and improved penetration depth provided by TPE. Correction of FRET signals for cross excitation and cross emission was achieved by switching the excitation wavelength with an electrically controlled modulator. Measurement speed was primarily limited by integration times required to measure fluorescence. Using this system, we measured the FRET efficiency of calmodulin labeled with Alexa Fluor 488 and Texas Red dyes. In addition, we measured two-photon induced FRET in an E(0)GFP-mCherry protein construct. Results from one-photon and two-photon excitation are compared to validate the rapid wavelength switched two-photon measurements.
