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

An automated single-molecule imaging system developed for live-cell analyses based on artificial intelligence-assisted microscopy is presented. All significant procedures, i.e., searching for cells suitable for observation, detecting in-focus positions, and performing image acquisition and single-molecule tracking, are fully automated, and numerous highly accurate, efficient, and reproducible single-molecule imaging experiments in living cells can be performed. Here, the apparatus is applied for single-molecule imaging and analysis of epidermal growth factor receptors (EGFRs) in 1600 cells in a 96-well plate within 1 day. Changes in the lateral mobility of EGFRs on the plasma membrane in response to various ligands and drug concentrations are clearly detected in individual cells, and several dynamic and pharmacological parameters are determined, including the diffusion coefficient, oligomer size, and half-maximal effective concentration (EC
