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 photophysical properties of a deep-red fluorescent squaraine dye can be improved by encapsulating it within a tetralactam macrocycle. Three new tetralactams are described with different substituents (methyl, methoxy, methylenedioxy) on the macrocycle aromatic sidewalls. The capability of each tetralactam to encapsulate a squaraine dye in chloroform solution was determined experimentally using absorption, fluorescence, and NMR spectroscopy. Two of the tetralactams were found to thread a squaraine dye with association constants on the order of 106 M-1, while a third macrocycle exhibited no squaraine affinity. An X-ray crystal structure of the third tetralactam showed that the substituents sterically blocked squaraine association. Of the two tetralactams that encapsulate a squaraine, one induces an increase in squaraine fluorescence quantum yield, while the other quenches the squaraine fluorescence. The results suggest that these new squaraine binding systems will be useful for biological imaging and diagnostics applications.
