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

Synthetic fluorophores built on a classic rhodamine scaffold are essential for modern microscopy. An attractive feature of synthetic fluorophores is their potential to access long-wavelength excitation and emission profiles (>650 nm) that are difficult to achieve through genetically encoded methods like fluorescent proteins. Here, we present a new strategy to achieve excitation and emission above 650 nm: bis(trifluoromethyl)carborhodamine dyes, or BF dyes. In BF dyes, the geminal methyl groups of carborhodamines are replaced with trifluoromethyl (CF
