Dynamics of Immune Cell Microvilli.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Microvilli are actin-based microscopic membrane protrusions that are present in a wide variety of immune cells. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that the T cell surface is covered by microvilli. Growing evidence shows that microvilli play important roles in T cell antigen detection and signal transduction. T cell microvilli are highly dynamic and constantly scan and palpate the opposing antigen-presenting cell (APC) surface in search of antigens. Visualizing the rapid movement of microvilli that are only hundreds of nanometers in size requires imaging technologies with high spatial and temporal resolution. Lattice light-sheet microscopy can achieve diffraction-limited resolution in all three dimensions with a temporal resolution of seconds, making it the perfect tool for studying dynamic events of microvilli during T cell antigen detection and activation. In this chapter, we describe a protocol for imaging localization and movement of T cell microvilli and surface receptors using lattice light-sheet microscopy.
