Heat damage of cytoskeleton in erythrocytes increases membrane roughness and cell rigidity.
Article in Journal of biological physics, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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.
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
The intensity of erythrocyte membrane fluctuations was studied by laser interference microscopy (LIM), which provide information about mechanical properties of the erythrocyte membrane. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) was used to study erythrocyte surface relief; it is related to the cytoskeleton structure of erythrocyte membrane. Intact human erythrocytes and erythrocytes with a destroyed cytoskeleton were used. According to the obtained results, cytoskeleton damage induced by heating up to 50 °С results in a reduced intensity of cell membrane fluctuations compared to non-treated cells (20.6 ± 10.2 vs. 30.5 ± 5.5 nm, correspondingly), while the roughness of the membrane increases (4.5 ± 1.5 vs. 3.4 ± 0.5 nm, correspondingly).
