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

Fluorescent nanodiamonds (fNDs) represent an emerging class of nanomaterials offering great opportunities for ultrahigh resolution imaging, sensing and drug delivery applications. Their biocompatibility, exceptional chemical and consistent photostability renders them particularly attractive for correlative light-electron microscopy studies providing unique insights into nanoparticle-cell interactions. Herein, we demonstrate a stringent procedure to image and quantify fNDs with a high contrast down to the single particle level in cells. Individual fNDs were directly visualized by energy-filtered transmission electron microscopy, that is, inside newly forming, early endosomal vesicles during their cellular uptake processes as well as inside cellular organelles such as a mitochondrion. Furthermore, we demonstrate the unequivocal identification, localization, and quantification of individual fNDs in larger fND clusters inside intracellular vesicles. Our studies are of great relevance to obtain quantitative information on nanoparticle trafficking and their various interactions with cells, membranes, and organelles, which will be crucial to design-improved sensors, imaging probes, and nanotherapeutics based on quantitative data.
