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

LSSmOrange is a fluorescent protein that exhibits slow photoconversion and is used as an imaging tool to highlight specific subpopulations of molecules. While photoconversion in LSSmOrange is known to involve Kolbe decarboxylation of the E215 side chain, its structural dynamics remain unexplored. We addressed the excited state dynamics of LSSmOrange by using serial femtosecond crystallography (SFX) with an X-ray free electron laser. SFX enabled us to determine the crystal structure of unconverted LSSmOrange without detectable X-ray damage, facilitating a femtosecond optical pumpX-ray probe experiment to track time-resolved structural changes. A decrease in electron density at E215 was observed 250 ps after strong pump laser illumination (mean fluence of 0.31 J/cm
