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

Quantum dots (QDs) are extremely bright, photostable, nanometer particles broadly used to investigate single molecule dynamics in vitro. However, the use of QDs in vivo to investigate single molecule dynamics is impaired by the absence of an efficient way to chemically deliver them into the cytosol of cells. Indeed, current methods (using cell-penetrating peptides for instance) provide very low yields: QDs stay at the plasma membrane or are trapped in endosomes. Here, we introduce a technology based on cell-penetrating poly(disulfide)s that solves this problem: we deliver about 70 QDs per cell, and 90% appear to freely diffuse in the cytosol. Furthermore, these QDs can be functionalized, carrying GFP or anti-GFP nanobodies for instance. Our technology thus paves the way toward single molecule imaging in cells and living animals, allowing to probe biophysical properties of the cytosol.
