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

Small-molecular probes capable of monitoring and interfering with the activity of biomacromolecules - such as polysaccharides, nucleotides and proteins - are of paramount importance to the advancement of life science. However, such probes that can detect and simultaneously modulate the construction of biomacromolecules are elusive. Here we report a fluorogenic, foldable glycoprobe that can recognize and assemble a protein receptor in a synchronous fashion. The glycoprobe synthesized by introducing a glycoligand (for protein recognition) to a bola-type bis-fluorophore conjugate shows a "self-shielded" fluorescence in the folded state. Association with a receptor protein rapidly unfolds the probe, releasing a fluorophore capable of crosslinking the proteins - as determined using small-angle X-ray scattering - thereby producing a unique fluorescent supramolecular construct. We have demonstrated the use of the foldable glycoprobe in order to track the endocytic cycle of a transmembrane receptor.
