Temporal gradients in microfluidic systems to probe cellular dynamics: a review.
Review in Analytica chimica acta, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Microfluidic devices have found a unique place in cellular studies due to the ease of fabrication, their ability to provide long-term culture, or the seamless integration of downstream measurements into the devices. The accurate and precise control of fluid flows also allows unique stimulant profiles to be applied to cells that have been difficult to perform with conventional devices. In this review, we describe and provide examples of microfluidic systems that have been used to generate temporal gradients of stimulants, such as waveforms or pulses, and how these profiles have been used to produce biological insights into mammalian cells that are not typically revealed under static concentration gradients. We also discuss the inherent analytical challenges associated with producing and maintaining temporal gradients in these devices.
