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

In this study we developed a highly sensitive dual modal imaging system designed for gold nanoparticles (GNPs) conjugated to various fluorophores in solid phantoms. The system consists of fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) for surface imaging, diffusion reflection (DR) for deep tissue imaging (up to 1cm), and metal enhanced fluorescence (MEF). We detected quenching in fluorescent intensity (FI) for the conjugation of gold nanospheres (GNS) as well as gold nanorods (GNRs) to Fluorescein, which has an excitation peak at a wavelength shorter than the surface plasmon resonance (SPR) of both types of GNPs, and enhanced FI in conjugation to Rhodamine B and Sulforhodamine B, both with excitation peaks in the GNPs' SPR. The enhanced FI was detected in solution as well as in solid phantoms from FLIM measurements. DR measurements detected GNR presence within the solid phantoms by recording dropped rates of light scattering using wavelengths corresponding to the GNRs' absorption. With the inclusion of MEF, this promising dual modal imaging technique enables efficient and sensitive molecular and functional imaging.
