Understanding the driving force for cell migration plasticity.
Review in Biophysical journal, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
Cell migration is a complex phenomenon. Not only do different cells migrate in different default modes, but the same cell can also change its migration mode to adapt to different terrains. This complexity has riddled cell biologists and biophysicists for decades in that, despite the development of many powerful tools over the past 30 years, how cells move is still being actively investigated. This is because we have yet to fully understand the mystery of cell migration plasticity, particularly the reciprocal relation between force generation and migration mode transition. Herein we explore the future directions, in terms of measurement platforms and imaging-based techniques, to facilitate the undertaking of elucidating the relation between force generation machinery and migration mode transition. By briefly reviewing the evolution of the platforms and techniques developed in the past, we propose the desirable features to be added to achieve high measurement accuracy and improved temporal and spatial resolution, permitting us to unveil the mystery of cell migration plasticity.
