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

Bioluminescence imaging is a powerful, broadly utilized method for noninvasive imaging studies in cell-based assays and small animal models of normal physiology and multiple diseases. In combination with molecular engineering of cells and entire organisms using luciferase enzymes, bioluminescence imaging has enabled novel applications including studies of protein-protein interactions, ligand-receptor interactions, cell trafficking, and drug targeting in mouse models. We describe use of a novel luciferase enzyme derived from Oplophorus gracilirostris, NanoLuc, in cell-based assays bioluminescence imaging of tumor-bearing mice. We also combine NanoLuc with another luciferase enzyme, firefly luciferase, to image multiple signal transduction events in one imaging session.
