Reproducibility of circulating endothelial cell enumeration and activation in children and adolescents.
Article in Biomarkers in medicine, 2016. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
introductionWe examined the reproducibility of circulating endothelial cells (CEC) enumeration and activation among youth. MATERIALS AND
methodsCECs from 151 youth were measured at baseline and 1 week follow-up. Enumeration of CEC in fresh whole blood was determined by direct assessment of buffy coat smears (CD146+ nucleated cells) and activated CEC (%VCAM-1 expression) was determined after immunomagnetic enrichment and co-staining of nuclei, plus positivity for P1H12 and VCAM-1.
resultsNo statistically significant difference in CEC enumeration (1.2 ± 2.5 vs 1.3 ± 2.2 CEC/milliliter of whole blood, p = 0.745) or activated CEC (57.1 ± 24.4 vs 58.0 ± 21.3 %VCAM-1, p = 0.592) between baseline and 1 week follow-up.
conclusionOn a cohort basis, CEC enumeration and activation are reproducible in youth. Relatively high individual biological variability may limit its clinical utility.
