Boyden chamber-based compartmentalized tumor spheroid culture system to implement localized anticancer drug treatment.
Article in Biomicrofluidics, 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
In anticancer drug development, it is important to simultaneously evaluate both the effect of drugs on cell proliferation and their ability to penetrate tissues. To realize such an evaluation process, here, we present a compartmentalized tumor spheroid culture system utilizing a thin membrane with a through-hole to conduct localized anticancer treatment of tumor spheroids and monitor spheroid dimensions as an indicator of cell proliferation. The system is based on a commercialized Boyden chamber plate; a through-hole was bored through a porous membrane of the chamber, and the pre-existing 0.4
