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

This paper describes the construction of a novel stigmatic microscope and image analysis algorithm to simultaneously analyze convective mixing both inside and outside of rehydrating μL-scale aqueous two-phase system (ATPS) droplets. Stigmatic microscopy is inexpensive and advantageous because it modifies the point-spread function of fluorescent particles to enable measurement of their 3D positions from single 2D images, without needing to take slices. In one application of the technique, the convection patterns captured clarify how different ATPS formulations succeed or fail to exclude cells for patterning. Particle flow traces reveal speed and directionality of circulation, indicating temporary eddies at the outer edge of the rehydrating droplet. In another application, the speed of circulation during rehydration was analyzed for different ATPS formulations and the results used to develop a new fast ELISA procedure. While this paper focuses on ATPS rehydration, the microscope and algorithm should be applicable to a broad range of microfluidic flows where microscale 3D convection is important.
