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

Raster image correlation spectroscopy (RICS) is a powerful method for measuring molecular diffusion in live cells directly from images acquired on a laser scanning microscope. However, RICS only provides single average diffusion coefficients from regions with a lateral size on the order of few micrometers, which means that its spatial resolution is mainly limited to the cellular level. Here we introduce the local RICS (L-RICS), an easy-to-use tool that generates high resolution maps of diffusion coefficients from images acquired on a laser scanning microscope. As an application we show diffusion maps of a green fluorescent protein (GFP) within the nucleus and within the nucleolus of live cells at an effective spatial resolution of 500 nm. We find not only that diffusion in the nucleolus is slowed down compared to diffusion in the nucleoplasm, but also that diffusion in the nucleolus is highly heterogeneous.
