Sudden Cell Death Induced by Ca
Article in Biomedicines, 2021. 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
Intracellular calcium ion delivery via sonoporation has been validated to be a substitute for classical chemotherapy. However, the mechanism behind calcium sonoporation remains unclear to this day. To elucidate the role of calcium in the process of sonoporation, we aimed to investigate the influence of different calcium concentration on cell membrane permeabilization and cell viability after sonoporation. In this study, we present experimental evidence that extracellular calcium plays a major role in cell membrane molecular transport after applying ultrasound pulses. Ultrasound-microbubble cavitation in the presence of different calcium concentration affects fundamental cell bio-physio-chemical conditions: cell membrane integrity, metabolic activity, and colony formation. Corresponding vital characteristics were evaluated using three independent viability tests: propidium iodide assay (20 min-3 h), MTT assay (48 h), and cell clonogenic assay (6 d). The results indicate instant cell death, as the level of cell viability was determined to be similar within a 20 min-48 h-6 d period. Inertial cavitation activities have been determined to be directly involved in calcium delivery via sonoporation according to high correlation (R
