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

The flexibility and versatility of self-complementing split fluorescent proteins (FPs) have enabled a wide range of applications. In particular, the FP1-10/11 split system contains a small fragment that facilitates efficient generation of endogenous-tagged cell lines and animals as well as signal amplification using tandem FP11 tags. To improve the FP1-10/11 toolbox we previously developed, here we used a combination of directed evolution and rational design approaches, resulting in two mNeonGreen (mNG)-based split FPs (mNG3A1-10/11 and mNG3K1-10/11) and one mClover-based split FP (CloGFP1-10/11). mNG3A1-10/11 and mNG3K1-10/11 not only enhanced the complementation efficiency at low expression levels, but also allowed us to demonstrate signal amplification using tandem mNG211 fragments in mammalian cells.
