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

In cyanobacteria and red algae, the phycobilisome (PBS) absorbs light and transfers its energy to the chlorophylls in photosystems II (PSII) and I (PSI). With the help of target analysis of time-resolved emission spectra measured at room temperature (RT) and at 77 K, we establish a general kinetic scheme for excitation energy transfer (EET) and trapping based upon a PBS-PSII-PSI megacomplex. At RT it is found that in the dark-adapted cells (State II), the terminal emitter of PBS, allophycocyanin APC680, transfers energy to PSII and PSI with equal rates of ≈50 ns
