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

Fluorescent biosensors are chemically or genetically encoded reporters of cellular processes, signaling pathways, or biomolecule concentration, whose output is quantified using fluorescence microscopy or fluorescence spectrometry. These biosensors can detect the target activity or metabolites via mechanisms including conversion between nonfluorescent and fluorescent forms, changes in reporter intensity, changes in the intensity ratio across fluorescence channels, alterations to the subcellular localization of the bioreporter, and by fluorescence resonance energy transfer. Here, we describe the use of a chemical photoconverting biosensor, and genetically encoded localization and ratiometric biosensors, for monitoring the cellular and signaling processes involved in pathogen-induced apoptosis and the resulting destruction of the pathogen. While this study uses biosensors to monitor responses to infection, these approaches can be readily translated to other cellular systems and other fluorescent biosensors.
