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

Glucose-6-phosphate (G6P) is a key intermediate in multiple energetic and anabolic pathways, and quantifying its dynamics is essential for understanding cellular physiology. We have previously developed a syndicate of intensity-based, genetically encoded sensors based on the insertion of circularly permuted GFP into a Venus-flytrap-like analyte-binding protein. Here we use the same approach to develop an intensity-based G6P Sensing Fluorescent Reporter (iG6PSnFR). We present two variants: a G6P-activated sensor that increases fluorescence and a G6P-inactivated sensor that decreases fluorescence. We validate performance across progressively more complex preparations, including purified protein in vitro, immortalized and primary neuronal cultures, isolated pancreatic islets, in an intravital liver model, and finally in vivo in
