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

Photosynthetic organisms possess photoprotection mechanisms from excess light conditions. The fastest response consists in the pH-triggered activation of a dissipation channel of the energy absorbed by the chlorophylls into heat, called nonphotochemical quenching. In green algae, the pigment binding complex LHCSR3 acts both as a chlorophyll quencher and as a pH detector. In this work, we study the quenching of the LHCSR3 protein in vitro considering two different protein aggregation states and two pH conditions using a combination of picosecond time-resolved photoluminescence and femtosecond transient absorption in the visible and NIR spectral regions. We find that the mechanisms at the basis of LHCSR3 quenching activity are always active, even at pH 7.5 and low aggregation. However, quenching efficiency is strongly enhanced by pH and by aggregation conditions. In particular, we find that electron transfer from carotenoids to chlorophylls is enhanced at low pH, while quenching mediated by protein-protein interactions is increased by going to a high aggregation state. We also observe a weak pH-dependent energy transfer from the chlorophylls to the S
