A versatile genetic-encoded reporter for magnetic resonance imaging.

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
It has been a long-cherished wish in biomedicine research to have an imaging tool to visualize gene expression, with good spatiotemporal resolution, in rodent and primate animals noninvasively and longitudinally. To this purpose, we here present a novel genetic encoded magnetic resonance imaging reporter, i.e., GEM reporter, for noninvasive visualization of cell-specific gene expression. The GEM reporter was developed through codon modification of a bacteria-originated manganese (Mn) binding protein, allowing the sequestration of endogenous Mn in local tissues. When expressed in bacteria, plant and animals, GEM reporter can robustly produce high image contrast in T1-weighted MRI without additional substrates or contrast agents. Importantly, GEM reporter can be tracked inherently by MRI in specific cells and tissues. These findings support GEM reporter as a versatile marker for deciphering gene expression spatiotemporally in living subjects.
