Effect of avidin-like proteins and biotin modification on mesenchymal stem cell adhesion.
Article in Biomaterials, 2013. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The avidin-biotin system is a highly specific reaction that has been used in a wide range of biomedical applications, including surface modification and cell patterning. We systematically examined a number of avidin derivatives as the basis for a simple and cost effective tissue culture polystyrene substrate surface modification for human stem cell culture. Non-specific adhesion between human mesenchymal stem cells and various avidin derivatives, media conditions, and subsequent biotinylation reactions was quantified. We observed significant non-specific cell adhesion to avidin and strepthavidin, indicating that previous observations using this system may be artifactual. Seeding of cells in serum free media, blocking with bovine serum albumin, and the use of the avidin derivative neutravidin were all necessary for elimination of background adhesion. Neutravidin conjugated with biotinylated bsp-RGD(15) peptide provided the most robust cell adhesion, as well as the greatest increase in cell adhesion over background levels.
