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

Engineered culture substrates have proven invaluable for investigating the role of cell and extracellular matrix geometry in governing cell behavior. While the mechanisms relating geometry to phenotype are complex, it is clear that the actin cytoskeleton plays a key role in integrating geometric inputs and transducing these cues into intracellular signals that drive downstream biology. Here, we review recent progress in elucidating the role of the cell and matrix geometry in regulating actin cytoskeletal architecture and mechanics. We address new developments in traditional two-dimensional culture paradigms and discuss efforts to extend these advances to three-dimensional systems, ranging from nanotextured surfaces to microtopographical systems (e.g. channels) to fully three-dimensional matrices.
