Quantitative method for in vitro matrigel invasiveness measurement through image analysis software.
Article in Molecular biology reports, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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 determination of cell invasion by matrigel assay is usually evaluated by counting cells able to pass through a porous membrane and attach themselves to the other side, or by an indirect quantification of eluted specific cell staining dye by means of optical density measurement. This paper describes a quantitative analytical imaging approach for determining the invasiveness of tumor cells using a simple method, based on images processing with the public domain software, ImageJ. Images obtained by direct capture are split into the red channel, and the generated image is used to measure the area that cells cover in the picture. To overcome the several disadvantages that classical cell invasion determinations present, we propose this method because it generates more accurate and sensitive determinations, and it could be a reasonable option for improving the quality of the results. The cost-effective alternative method proposed is based on this simple and robust software that is worldwide affordable.
