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

There has been increasing interest in biophysical studies on live organisms to gain better insights into physiologically relevant biological events at the molecular level. Zebrafish (Danio rerio) is a viable vertebrate model to study such events due to its genetic and evolutionary similarities to humans, amenability to less invasive fluorescence techniques owing to its transparency and well-characterized genetic manipulation techniques. Fluorescence techniques used to probe biomolecular dynamics and interactions of molecules in live zebrafish embryos are therefore highly sought-after to bridge molecular and developmental events. Fluorescence correlation and cross-correlation spectroscopy (FCS and FCCS) are two robust techniques that provide molecular level information on dynamics and interactions respectively. Here, we detail the steps for applying confocal FCS and FCCS, in particular single-wavelength FCCS (SW-FCCS), in live zebrafish embryos, beginning with sample preparation, instrumentation, calibration, and measurements on the FCS/FCCS instrument and ending with data analysis.
