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

Photosystem I (PSI) uses an antenna of chlorophyll (Chl) molecules to create a charge separated state with high quantum efficiency. Understanding the charge separation mechanism is currently hindered by spectral overlap between the antenna and reaction center (RC) Chls and the fact that energy transfer and electron transfer occur with similar time scales. Here, we characterize the antenna excited states by applying two-dimensional electronic (2DES) and two-dimensional electronic-vibrational (2DEV) spectroscopy to PSI complexes with closed RCs. Comparison of the 2DES and 2DEV spectra, which evolve with the same kinetics, enabled characterization of the vibrational modes of the antenna during energy equilibration between spectrally distinct Chls. Through global analysis, we learn how energy transfer between the Bulk and Red Chls presents in the 2DEV spectra and we definitively identify vibrations of the cationic components of the mixed exciton and intermolecular charge transfer states associated with the Red Chls. This work enables future studies of the initial charge separation mechanism of PSI by 2DEV spectroscopy.
