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

Bioluminescence imaging has been widely used in life sciences and biomedical applications. However, conventional bioluminescence imaging usually operates in the visible region, which hampers the high-performance in vivo optical imaging due to the strong tissue absorption and scattering. To address this challenge, here we present bioluminescence probes (BPs) with emission in the second near infrared (NIR-II) region at 1029 nm by employing bioluminescence resonance energy transfer (BRET) and two-step fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) with a specially designed cyanine dye FD-1029. The biocompatible NIR-II-BPs are successfully applied to vessels and lymphatics imaging in mice, which gives ~5 times higher signal-to-noise ratios and ~1.5 times higher spatial resolution than those obtained by NIR-II fluorescence imaging and conventional bioluminescence imaging. Their capability of multiplexed imaging is also well displayed. Taking advantage of the ATP-responding character, the NIR-II-BPs are able to recognize tumor metastasis with a high tumor-to-normal tissue ratio at 83.4.
