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

Despite improved sensitivity of nanothermometers, direct observation of heat transport inside single cells has remained challenging for the lack of high-speed temperature imaging techniques. Here, we identified insufficient temperature resolution under short signal integration time and slow sensor kinetics as two major bottlenecks. To overcome the limitations, we developed B-gTEMP, a nanothermometer based on the tandem fusion of mNeonGreen and tdTomato fluorescent proteins. We visualized the propagation of heat inside intracellular space by tracking the temporal variation of local temperature at a time resolution of 155 μs and a temperature resolution 0.042 °C. By comparing the fast
