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

Gap junctions (GJs), which are proteinaceous channels, couple adjacent cells by permitting direct exchange of intracellular molecules with low molecular weights. GJ intercellular communication (GJIC) plays a critical role in regulating behaviors of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs), affecting their proliferation and differentiation. Here we report a novel use of sonoporation that enables single cell intracellular dye loading and dynamic visualization/quantification of GJIC in hESC colonies. By applying a short ultrasound pulse to excite single microbubbles tethered to cell membranes, a transient pore on the cell membrane (sonoporation) is generated which allows intracellular loading of dye molecules and influx of Ca
