Measurement of Intracellular Temperature in Brown Adipocytes Using a Cationic Fluorescent Polymeric Thermometer.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Brown adipose tissue specializes in expending energy through non-shivering thermogenesis, and many studies have associated its activity with protection and treatment of obesity and metabolic diseases. To reveal the mechanisms involved in heat production, primary cultured brown adipose cells (BACs) have been used because of their ease of genetic engineering and similarity to living tissue. However, thermogenic activity has often been evaluated as an indirect method, such as the measurement of oxygen consumption. Recently, fluorescent nanothermometers for the direct measurement of intracellular temperature have been developed and applied to elucidate the mechanisms of heat production in BACs. In this chapter, we introduce a protocol that uses a cationic fluorescent polymeric thermometer to directly measure the temperature within primary cultured BACs. We anticipate that this protocol will be beneficial in elucidating the mechanism of thermogenesis in BACs.
