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

Magnetic-activated cell sorting (MACS) is an affinity-based technique used to separate cells according to the presence of specific markers. Current MACS systems generally require an antigen to be expressed at the cell surface; these antigen-presenting cells subsequently interact with antibody-labeled magnetic particles, facilitating separation. Here, we present an alternative MACS method based on coiled-coil peptide interactions. We demonstrate that HeLa, CHO, and NIH3T3 cells can either incorporate a lipid-modified coiled-coil-forming peptide into their membrane, or that the cells can be transfected with a plasmid containing a gene encoding a coiled-coil-forming peptide. Iron oxide particles are functionalized with the complementary peptide and, upon incubation with the cells, labeled cells are facilely separated from nonlabeled populations. In addition, the resulting cells and particles can be treated with trypsin to facilitate detachment of the cells from the particles. Therefore, our new MACS method promotes efficient cell sorting of different cell lines, without the need for antigen presentation, and enables simple detachment of the magnetic particles from cells after the sorting process. Such a system can be applied to rapidly developing, sensitive research areas, such as the separation of genetically modified cells from their unmodified counterparts.
