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

backgroundMicropatterning is becoming a powerful tool for studying cells in vitro. This method not only uses very small amount of material but also mimic the microenvironment structure present in living tissues better than flask culturing techniques. In previous studies using micropatterning of extracellular matrix proteins on glass surfaces, the rate of protein detachment from the surface was so high that the proteins and the cultivated cells detached after 3 three days of cell seeding.

methodsHere we optimized the glass surface modification method to fulfill the requirement of most in vitro studies.

resultsIn our study we showed that the optimum time for glass surface modification reaction is 1.5 hr, and the cells could be tracked in vitro for over 15 days after cell seeding which is enough for the most in vitro studies. As a model, we cultivated HEK 293T and HepG2 cells on the collagen micro-patterns and showed that they have normal growth and morphology on these micropatterns. The HEK cells also transfected with pmaxGFP plasmid vector to show that the cells on collagen micropatterns could also used in transfection studies.

conclusionTaking these together, this novel method is promising for efficient cell culture studies on micropatterened surfaces in the future.
