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

Nitrogen-doped carbon dots (N-CDs) with fluorescence excitation/emission maxima at 365/450 nm were prepared by a one-step hydrothermal approach. The dots possess remarkable photostability, fluorescence blinking and good biocompatibility, and this favors utilization in stochastic optical reconstruction microscopy (STORM). A spatial resolution down to ~60 nm was achieved when imaging HeLa cells using 647-nm laser excitation. This opens new possibilities for various super-resolution techniques based on stochastic optical switching. The remarkable optical properties of the N-CDs also enable them to be applied as invisible security ink for use in patterning, information storage and anti-counterfeiting. Further, it is found that the fluorescence of the N-CDs can be quenched by curcumin with high efficiency due to a combination of inner filter effect and static quenching. Based on this, a fluorometric assay with a detection limit of 21 ng mL
