Detection of circulating sarcoma tumor cells using a microfluidic chip-type cell sorter.
Article in Scientific reports, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Analyses of circulating tumor cells have been shown to be effective for the detection of cancer relapse and prognosis prediction. However, research regarding its utility in sarcoma remains scarce. In this study, the microfluidic chip-type cell sorter On-chip Sort was used to construct a system for detecting circulating sarcoma cells (CSCs). A pilot study using normal fibroblast or sarcoma cell lines was designed to establish a reliable protocol to separate CSCs by On-chip Sort. A single CSC was separated and recovered from 10 ml of whole blood from a patient with locally advanced myxofibrosarcoma. The nonsynonymous mutation for KMT2B p.Ile2602Val identified in the formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tumor sample was also confirmed in the CSC. Use of the developed protocol may allow CSCs to become an early predictor for metastasis and recurrence of sarcoma. Further, it may aid in optimizing post-operative therapies for patients without metastasis.
