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

The fluorescence intermittency or "blinking" of single molecules of ATTO647N (ATTO) in the conductive matrix polyvinylcarbazole (PVK) is described in the presence of an external applied electric field. It is shown that due to the energy distribution of the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) level of PVK, which is energetically close to the HOMO of ATTO, sporadic electron transfer occurs. As a result, the on/off dynamics of blinking can be influenced by the electric field. This field will, depending on the respective position and orientation of the dye/polymer system with respect to those of the electrodes, either enhance or suppress electron transfer from PVK to ATTO as well as the back electron transfer from reduced ATTO to PVK. After the charge-transfer step, the applied field will pull the hole in PVK away from the dye, increasing the overall time the dye resides in a dark state.
