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

We for the first time demonstrate multi-functional magnetic particles based rare cell isolation combined with the downstream laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (LDI-MS) to measure the metabolism of enriched circulating tumor cells (CTCs). The characterization of CTCs metabolism plays a significant role in understanding the tumor microenvironment, through exploring the diverse cellular process. However, characterizing cell metabolism is still challenging due to the low detection sensitivity, high sample complexity, and tedious preparation procedures, particularly for rare cells analysis in clinical study. Here we conjugate ferric oxide magnetic particles with anti-EpCAM on the surface for specific, efficient enrichment of CTCs from PBS and whole blood with cells concentration of 6-100 cells per mL. Moreover, these hydrophilic particles as matrix enable sensitive and selective LDI-MS detection of small metabolites (MW<500 Da) in complex bio-mixtures and can be further coupled with isotopic quantification to monitor selected molecules metabolism of ~50 CTCs. Our unique approach couples the immunomagnetic separation of CTCs and LDI-MS based metabolic analysis, which represents a key step forward for downstream metabolites analysis of rare cells to investigate the biological features of CTCs and their cellular responses in both pathological and physiological phenomena.
