Viscoelasticity of multicellular systems caused by collective cell migration: dynamics at the biointerface.
Article in European biophysics journal : EBJ, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Viscoelasticity of multicellular systems caused by collective cell migration depends on (1) viscoelasticity of migrating clusters, (2) viscoelasticity of surrounding resting cells and (3) the size, slip effects and thickness of the biointerface. A previously developed model for a sharp biointerface is expanded for the case of a finite biointerface based on thermodynamic and rheological considerations to estimate the influence of the biointerface properties on viscoelasticity. These properties of the interface layer are one of the key factors which influence the overall properties of the mixture, such as its viscoelasticity. Sliding of cell clusters through dense surroundings induces generation of significant shear stress, within the biointerface, which influences (1) the active (contractile) or passive state of single cells and (2) the state of cell-cell adhesion contacts. Cells retain collectivity in migration patterns even upon a reduction of cell-cell adhesion caused by stress generation. A greater size to the biointerface leads to the weakening of multicellular systems for the same volume fraction of migrating cells due to energy dissipation. Various factors such as (1) increase of the interface size, (2) reduction in slip effects under the constant thickness of the biointerface and (3) decrease in the biointerface thickness under constant slip effects induce an increase of the shear rate as well as the overall energy dissipation and can lead to circular cell movement within the biointerface layer. Additional experiments at subcellular and cellular levels are needed to determine the influence of mechanical factors on collective cell migration.
