Micro-particle image velocimetry for blood flow in thick round glass micro-channels: Channel fabrication and velocity profile characterization.
Article in MethodsX, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
This method describes the use of thick round borosilicate glass micro-channels for blood flow visualization using micro-particle image velocimetry (µPIV) techniques. In contrast with popular methods using squared polydimethylsiloxane channels, this method allows for visualization of blood flow in channel geometries that resemble more the natural physiology of human blood vessels. With a custom designed enclosure, the microchannels were submerged in glycerol to reduce light refraction occurring during µPIV due to the thick walls of the glass channels. A method is proposed to correct the extracted velocity profiles from the µPIV to account for out-of-focus error. The customized elements of this method include: • The use of thick circular glass micro-channels, • a custom designed mounting solution for the channels on a glass slide for flow visualization, • a MATLAB code to correct velocity profile accounting for out-of-focus error.
