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

Localization-microscopy-based methods are widely used to map the forces that cells apply to their substrates and to study important questions of cellular biomechanics. By contrast, elastic resonator interference stress microscopy (ERISM) uses an interference-based approach, which requires low light intensity and facilitates imaging of cellular forces with extreme precision (down to pN forces) and robustness (e.g., for continuous force monitoring over weeks). Here, the measurement trade-offs and numerical considerations required to optimize the performance of ERISM are described. The crucial parts of the fitting algorithm and the computational tools used to evaluate the data are explained in detail, and the precision and accuracy achievable with ERISM are analyzed. Additional features that can improve the robustness of ERISM further are discussed. The implementation of the analysis algorithm is verified with simulated test data and with experimental data. In addition, an approach to increase the acquisition speed of ERISM by a factor of four compared to the original implementation is described. In combination, these strategies allow us to measure the forces generated by a neural growth cone with high temporal resolution and continuously over several hours.
