Generation of Ultralong Liposome Tubes by Membrane Fusion beneath a Laser-Induced Microbubble on Gold Surfaces.
Article in ACS omega, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Membrane fusion (MF) is one of the most important and ubiquitous processes in living organisms. In this study, we developed a novel method for MF of liposomes. Our method is based on laser-induced bubble generation on gold surfaces (a plasmonic nanostructure or a flat film). It is a simple and quick process that takes about 1 min. Upon bubble generation, liposomes not only collect and become trapped but also fuse to form long tubes beneath the bubble. Moreover, during laser irradiation, these long tubes remain stable and move with a waving motion while continuing to grow, resulting in the creation of ultralong tubes with lengths of about 50 μm. It should be noted that the morphology of these ultralong tubes is analogous to that of a sea anemone. The behavior of the tubes was also monitored by fluorescence microscopy. The generation of these ultralong tubes is discussed on the basis of Marangoni convection and thermophoresis.
