Microfluidic flow-cell with passive flow control for microscopy applications.
Article in PloS one, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
We present a fast, inexpensive and robust technique for constructing thin, optically transparent flow-cells with pump-free flow control. Using layers of glass, patterned adhesive tape and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) connections, we demonstrate the fabrication of planar devices with chamber height as low as 25 μm and with millimetre-scale (x,y) dimensions for wide-field microscope observation. The method relies on simple benchtop equipment and does not require microfabrication facilities, glass drilling or other workshop infrastructure. We also describe a gravity perfusion system that exploits the strong capillary action in the flow chamber as a passive limit-valve. Our approach allows simple sequential sample exchange with controlled flow rates, sub-5 μL sample chamber size and zero dead volume. We demonstrate the system in a single-molecule force spectroscopy experiment using magnetic tweezers.
