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

Bimolecular Fluorescence Complementation (BiFC) is a powerful molecular imaging method used to visualize protein-protein interactions (PPIs) in living cells or organisms. BiFC is based on the reassociation of hemi-fragments of a monomeric fluorescent protein upon spatial proximity. It is compatible with conventional light microscopy, providing a resolution that is constrained by the diffraction of light to around 250 nm. PAmCherry1, a fluorescent protein compatible for BiFC and Photoactivated Localization Microscopy (PALM), allows the analysis of PPIs with nanometer spatial resolution and single molecule sensitivity. To date, this so-called BiFC-PALM approach has only been described in human cell culture. Here, we present a protocol for performing BiFC-PALM in Drosophila larval salivary glands, using the interaction between the Hox protein Ultrabithorax (Ubx) and the generic Hox cofactor Extradenticle (Exd) as a model system.
