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

Owing to their large penetration depth and high resolution, X-rays are ideally suited to study structures and structural changes within intact biological cells. For this reason, X-ray-based techniques have been used to investigate adhesive cells on solid supports. However, these techniques cannot easily be transferred to the investigation of suspended cells in flow. Here, an X-ray compatible microfluidic device that serves as a sample delivery system and measurement environment for such studies is presented. As a proof of concept, the microfluidic device is applied to investigate chemically fixed bovine red blood cells by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). A very good agreement is found between in-flow and static SAXS data. Moreover, the data are fitted with a hard-sphere model and screened Coulomb interactions to obtain the radius of the protein hemoglobin within the cells. Thus, the utility of this device for studying suspended cells with SAXS in continuous flow is demonstrated.
