A melt-electrowritten filter for capture and culture of circulating colon cancer cells.
Article in Materials today. Bio, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Metastasis is the major cause of death in cancer patients accounting for about 90% of the mortality. The detection and analysis of the hallmark of metastasis, circulating tumor cells (CTCs), have significant impact in cancer biology and clinical practice. However, the scarcity of CTCs in blood, particularly in that of colorectal cancer patients, is a serious bottleneck in the development of CTC-based precision medicine. Herein, the melt electrowriting (MEW) technology was used for reproductive fabrication of a biocompatible antibody-presenting polycaprolactone filter with tailored porous structure. It is demonstrated, for the first time, that such filter can be used not only to catch cancer cells spiked in whole blood but also to culture the cancer cells directly
