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 aimed to establish a fluorescence intensity-based colony area sweeping method by selecting the area of highest viability among patient-derived cancer cells (PDC) which has high tumor heterogeneity. Five gastric cancer cell lines and PDCs were screened with 24 small molecule compounds using a 3D micropillar/microwell chip. 100 tumor cells per well were immobilized in alginate, treated with the compounds, and then stained and scanned for viable cells. Dose response curves and IC50 values were obtained based on total or selected area intensity based on fluorescence. Unlike homogeneous cell lines, PDC comprised of debris and low-viability cells, which resulted in an inaccurate estimation of cell viability using total fluorescence intensity as determined by high IC50 values. However, the IC50 of these cells was lower and accurate when calculated based on the selected-colony-area method that eliminated the intensity offset associated with the heterogeneous nature of PDC. The selected-colony-area method was optimized to accurately predict drug response in micropillar environment using heterogeneous nature of PDCs.
