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

Protein-induced fluorescence enhancement (PIFE) is a popular tool for characterizing protein-DNA interactions. PIFE has been explained by an increase in local viscosity due to the presence of the protein residues. This explanation, however, denies the opposite effect of fluorescence quenching. This work offers a perspective for understanding PIFE mechanism and reports the observation of a phenomenon that we name protein-induced fluorescence quenching (PIFQ), which exhibits an opposite effect to PIFE. A detailed characterization of these two fluorescence modulations reveals that the initial fluorescence state of the labeled mediator (DNA) determines whether this mediator-conjugated dye undergoes PIFE or PIFQ upon protein binding. This key role of the mediator DNA provides a protocol for the experimental design to obtain either PIFQ or PIFE, on-demand. This makes the arbitrary nature of the current experimental design obsolete, allowing for proper integration of both PIFE and PIFQ with existing bulk and single-molecule fluorescence techniques.
