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

Single-fluorescent protein (FP)-based FLIM (fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy) biosensors can visualize intracellular processes quantitatively. They require a single wavelength for detection, which facilitates multi-color imaging. However, their development has been limited by the absence of a general design framework and complex screening processes. In this study, we engineered FLIM biosensors for ATP (adenosine triphosphate), cAMP (cyclic adenosine monophosphate), citrate, and glucose by inserting each sensing domain into mTurquoise2 (mTQ2) between Tyr-145 and Phe-146 using peptide linkers. Fluorescence intensity-based screening yielded FLIM biosensors with a 0.5 to 1.0 ns dynamic range upon analyte binding, demonstrating that the mTQ2(1-145)-GT-X-EF-mTQ2(146-238) backbone is a versatile platform for FLIM biosensors, allowing for simple intensity-based screening while providing dual-functional biosensors for both FLIM and intensity-based imaging. As a proof of concept, we monitored cAMP and Ca
