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

Microfluidic dilution chip is a crucial approach to perform gradient dilution of experimental samples in many biological investigations. In this study, we developed two serial wide-range dilution chips with dilution rates of 1:1 and 1:4 on the basis of the microfluidic oscillator by designing a series chamber, which was similar to a series circuit. The size of this chamber was adjusted and mixed with the neighboring air chamber to form dilution rates by oscillatory methods. We applied this microfluidic oscillator to estimate cellular kinetics and perform an acute oxidative stress test on
