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 describe a new method which allows quantitative measurements of fluorescence intensity in highly scattering media. The measurement principle is based on observing the emission from both the fluorophore of interest with a nanosecond decay time and of a reference fluorophore which displays a much longer microsecond lifetime. The reference fluorophore is placed on rather than in the sample to mimic a sensing device with the long lifetime reference held against the skin. The amplitude modulation of the emission is observed using the standard method of frequency-domain (FD) fluorometry. At an intermediate modulation frequency, the modulation is equivalent to the fractional intensity of the nanosecond fluorophore. The method was tested in 0.5% intralipid, which is more highly scattering than skin. Quantitative intensity measurements were obtained for various concentrations of fluorescein in intralipid, and of the pH sensor 6-carboxyfluorescein (6-CF). Low frequency modulation measurements provide a general method for quantitative measurements in the presence of factors which preclude direct intensity measurements.
