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

Cell morphology is profoundly influenced by cellular interactions with microenvironmental factors such as the extracellular matrix (ECM). Upon adhesion to specific ECM, various cell types are known to exhibit different but distinctive morphologies, suggesting that ECM-dependent cell morphological responses may harbour rich information on cellular signalling states. However, the inherent morphological complexity of cellular and subcellular structures has posed an ongoing challenge for automated quantitative analysis. Since multi-channel fluorescence microscopy provides robust molecular specificity important for the biological interpretations of observed cellular architecture, here we develop a deep learning-based analysis pipeline for the classification of cell morphometric phenotypes from multi-channel fluorescence micrographs, termed SE-RNN (residual neural network with squeeze-and-excite blocks). We demonstrate SERNN-based classification of distinct morphological signatures observed when fibroblasts or epithelial cells are presented with different ECM. Our results underscore how cell shapes are non-random and established the framework for classifying cell shapes into distinct morphological signature in a cell-type and ECM-specific manner.
