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

Highly stable symmetric and asymmetric squaraine fluorophores have been synthesized featuring an internal salt bridge between a quaternary ammonium cation and the central oxycyclobutenolate ring of the chromophore. Some of our newly synthesized symmetric and asymmetric compounds display increased molar absorptivity, quantum yield in serum, and thermal/photochemical stability over previously reported squaraine-based dyes. Consequently, both classes show great promise in resurfacing the normal environment-labile squaraine dyes as novel imaging agents and scaffolds for fluorescence sensing. Furthermore, incorporating a covalent attachment point away from the conjugated system allows for biological tagging applications without disturbing the optimum optical characteristics of the newly designed fluorophore.
