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

Nuclear proteins can modulate their DNA binding activity and the exploration volume available during DNA target search by self-associating into higher-order oligomers. Directly tracking this process in the nucleoplasm of a living cell is, however, a complex task. Thus, here we present a microscopy method based on radial pair correlation of molecular brightness fluctuations (radial pCOMB) that can extract the mobility of a fluorescently tagged nuclear protein as a function of its oligomeric state and spatiotemporally map the anisotropy of this parameter with respect to nuclear architecture. By simply performing a rapid frame scan acquisition, radial pCOMB has the capacity to detect, within each pixel, protein oligomer formation and the size-dependent obstruction nuclear architecture imparts on this complex's transport across sub-micrometer distances. From application of radial pCOMB to an oligomeric transcription factor and DNA repair protein, we demonstrate that homo-oligomer formation differentially regulates chromatin accessibility and interaction with the DNA template.
