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

Oxygen permeability is a critical property of protein nanocages (PNCs) that impacts or dictates the functions of PNCs. However, it remains challenging to determine it experimentally. Here, we report compartmentalized oxygen sensing inside PNCs by assembling matryoshka-type structures through interfacial engineering, namely, one PNC containing another smaller one functionalized with small-molecule oxygen probes. Oxygen in the lumen of the outer PNCs can be probed conveniently via phosphorescence spectrometry. This method enabled the analysis of two representative PNCs, MS2 virus-like particles and
