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

Protein organization modification plays a vital role in initiating signaling pathways, transcriptional regulation, and cell apoptosis regulation. Simultaneous quantification of oligomeric state and cellular parameters in the same cell, even though challenging, is required to understand their correlation at the molecular level. Recent advances of fluorescence protein and single-molecule localization microscopy enables the determination of localizations and oligomeric states of target proteins in cells. We reviewed the fluorescence intensity-based, localization-based, and photophysical property-based approaches for in-cell quantification of protein oligomeric stoichiometry. We discussed their working principles, applications, advantages, and limitations. These results also imply the combination of methodologies targeting different biological parameters at the single-cell level is essential to uncover the structure-function relationship at the molecular level.
