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

Endometrial cancer cell lines are critical tools to investigate the molecular mechanism of tumorigenesis using the end point cell-based assay such as proliferation, cytotoxicity, apoptosis, anoikis or migration and invasion. The proper assay optimization and performance is essential for physiologically relevant results interpretation. In this study we use label-free real-time cell analysis platform (xCELLigence) to optimize growing conditions for proliferation and migration experiments of two types of endometrial cancer cell lines HEC-1-B, HEC-1-A, KLE, and Ishikawa. Profiling of cell lines by cell index measurement in proliferation and migration experiments was performed. Our experimental approach allowed us to monitor particular stage of the cell growth, to see the relation between seeding density and dynamic cell growth as well as to choose the optimal serum concentration as chemoattractant in migration experiment. The highest rate of proliferation was shown for Ishikawa cells. The rapid pace of cellular migration was observed in case of KLE and HEC-1-B cells as compared to weak migratory activity of Ishikawa cells. The cell index that reflects the cell status characterized real-time cytological profile of each analyzed cell line. These cell profiles were crucial for better planning the classical end-point assays used in further research.
