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

The wide use of 3D-organotypic cell models is imperative for advancing our understanding of basic cell biological mechanisms. For this purpose, easy-to-use enabling technology is required, which should optimally link standardized assessment methods to those used for the formation, cultivation, and evaluation of cell aggregates or primordial tissue. We thus conceived, manufactured, and tested devices which provide the means for cell aggregation and online monitoring within a hanging drop. We then established a workflow for spheroid manipulation and immune phenotyping. This described workflow conserves media and reagent, facilitates the uninterrupted tracking of spheroid formation under various conditions, and enables 3D-marker analysis by means of 3D epifluorescence deconvolution microscopy. We provide a full description of the low-cost manufacturing process for the fluidic devices and microscopic assessment tools, and the detailed blueprints and building instructions are disclosed. Conclusively, the presented compilation of methods and techniques promotes a quick and barrier-free entry into 3D cell biology.
