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

Cancer has been one of the leading causes of death globally, with metastases and recurrences contributing to this result. The detection of circulating tumor cells (CTCs), which have been implicated as a major population of cells that is responsible for seeding and migration of tumor sites, could contribute to early detection of metastasis and recurrences, consequently increasing the chances of cure. This review article focuses on the current progress in microfluidics technology in CTCs diagnostics, extending to the use of nanomaterials and surface modification techniques for diagnostic applications, with an emphasis on the importance of integrating microchannels, nanomaterials, and surface modification techniques in the isolating and detecting of CTCs.
