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

We develop and employ the Fluorescence-Activating and absorption-Shifting Tag (FAST) system for super-resolution (SR) imaging and single-molecule tracking based on single-molecule localizations. The fast off rate of fluorogen binding, combined with its spatially well-separated labeling of the densely expressed FAST fusion proteins, allowed single-molecule measurements to be performed in both living and fixed cells. The well-separated fluorescence localization density was achieved by either reversibly controlling the fluorogen concentration or by irreversibly photobleaching the FAST-fluorogen complex. The experimentally determined resolution of 28 nm allowed us to resolve Ensconsin-labeled microtubules and to track single molecules in mitochondria. Our results demonstrate that FAST is well-suited for single-molecule localization microscopy (SMLM). The small size and the availability of spectrally distinct fluorogens present unique advantages of the FAST system as a potential orthogonal labeling strategy that could be applied in conjunction with existing super-resolution dyes and photoactivatable proteins in versatile imaging applications.
