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

Cell-based high-throughput drug screening (HTS) is a common starting point for the drug discovery and development process. Currently, there is a push to combine complex cell culture systems with HTS to provide more clinically applicable results. However, there are mechanistic requirements inherent to HTS as well as material limitations that make this integration challenging. Here, we used the peptide-based shear-thinning hydrogel MAX8 tagged with the RGDS sequence to create a synthetic extracellular scaffold to culture cells in three dimensions and showed a preliminary implementation of the scaffold within an automated HTS setup using a pilot drug screen targeting medulloblastoma, a pediatric brain cancer. A total of 2202 compounds were screened in the 384-well format against cells encapsulated in the hydrogel as well as cells growing on traditional two-dimensional (2D) plastic. Eighty-two compounds passed the first round of screening at a single point of concentration. Sixteen-point dose-response was done on those 82 compounds, of which 17 compounds were validated. Three-dimensional (3D) cell-based HTS could be a powerful screening tool that allows researchers to finely tune the cell microenvironment, getting more clinically applicable data as a result. Here, we have shown the successful integration of a peptide-based hydrogel into the high-throughput format.
