Modeling the size distribution of focal adhesions.
Article in Biophysical journal, 2006. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 17 papers.
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.
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
We calculate the size distribution of two-dimensional aggregates, for different simple dynamical growth models. The resulting size distributions of these domains, at steady state, are shown to depend strongly on the mode of domain growth. We then compare to the measured size-distribution of focal-adhesion domains. Using our calculation and the measured exponential distribution of focal-adhesion domain lengths can be used to test the validity of recent models proposed to describe the dynamics of these complexes in adhering cells.
