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

A new highly selective, chromogenic, and fluorogenic Cu(2+) chemosensor, fluorescein-N-methylimidazole conjugate 1, and another fluorescein-N-imidazole conjugate 2 were synthesized and investigated by UV-visible and fluorescence spectroscopy. The sensing of Cu(2+) quenches the emission band of 1 at λmax = 525 nm, with an association constant (K a = 1.0 x 10(7) M(-1)) and a stoichiometry of 1:1 in a buffered H2O: MeOH solution (4:1, pH = 7.4). The Cu(2+) detection limit for chemosensor 1 is 37 nM. The presence of the N-methyl group in 1 increased the Cu(2+) binding selectivity, resulting in a stronger binding constant and a broader pH working range (pH 5-10) in comparison to 2. The fluorescence in 1 and 2 is caused by electron transfer phenomenon from the imidazole nitrogen to fluorescein, which is readily inhibited by Cu(2+) binding.
