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.
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
Light-oxygen-voltage (LOV) domains are common photosensory modules that found many applications in fluorescence microscopy and optogenetics. Here, we show that the Chloroflexus aggregans LOV domain can bind different flavin species (lumichrome, LC; riboflavin, RF; flavin mononucleotide, FMN; flavin adenine dinucleotide, FAD) during heterologous expression and that its physicochemical properties depend strongly on the nature of the bound flavin. We show that whereas the dissociation constants for different chromophores are similar, the melting temperature of the protein reconstituted with single flavin species varies from ~ 60 °C for LC to ~ 81 °C for FMN, and photobleaching half-times vary almost 100-fold. These observations serve as a caution for future studies of LOV domains in non-native conditions yet raise the possibility of fine-tuning various properties of LOV-based fluorescent probes and optogenetic tools by manipulating the chromophore composition.
