Brightness of fluorescent organic nanomaterials.
Review in Chemical Society reviews, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 36 papers.
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
Brightness is a fundamental property of fluorescent nanomaterials reflecting their capacity to absorb and emit light. In sensing materials, brightness is crucial for high-sensitivity (bio)molecular detection, while in optical bioimaging it ensures high spatial and temporal resolution. Fluorescent organic nanoparticles (NPs) are particularly attractive because of their superior brightness compared to organic dyes. With the ever-growing diversity of organic nanomaterials, it is important to establish universal principles for measuring and estimating their brightness. This tutorial review provides definitions of brightness and describes the major approaches to its analysis based on ensemble and single-particle techniques. We present the current chemical approaches to fight Aggregation-Caused Quenching (ACQ) of fluorophores, which is a major challenge in the design of bright organic nanomaterials. The main classes of fluorescent organic NPs are described, including conjugated polymer NPs, aggregation-induced emission NPs, and NPs based on neutral and ionic dyes. Their brightness and other properties are systematically compared. Some brightest examples of bulk solid-state emissive organic materials are also mentioned. Finally, we analyse the importance of brightness and other particle properties in biological applications, such as bioimaging and biosensing. This tutorial will provide guidelines for chemists on the design of fluorescent organic NPs with improved performance and help them to estimate and compare the brightness of new nanomaterials with literature reports. Moreover, it will help biologists to select appropriate materials for sensing and imaging applications.
