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

Measuring thicknesses in thin films with high spatial and temporal resolution is of prime importance for understanding the structure and dynamics in thin films and membranes. In the present work, we introduce fluorescence-interferometry, a method that combines standard reflected light thin film interferometry with simultaneous fluorescence measurements. We apply this method to the thinning dynamics and phase separation in free-standing inverse phospholipid bilayer films. The measurements were carried out using a standard fluorescence microscope using multichannel imaging and yielded subnanometer resolution, which is applied to optically measure the discrete thickness variations across phase-separated membranes.
