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 entosis is a novel cell death process starting from cell-in-cell invasion. In general, cancer cells own higher incidence rate of cell entosis comparing to non-cancerous cells. Studies arguing whether cell entosis is a tumor suppressing process or a tumor accelerating process can deepen our understanding of tumor development. Cell elasticity is recognized as one of tumor malignant biomarkers. There have been some researchers studying cell elasticity in cell entosis. However, existing cell elasticity sensing technique (i.e. micropipette aspiration) can hardly be reliable neither high-throughput. In this work, we introduce an elasticity sensing method for quantifying both cell elasticity in cell-in-cell structures and single floating cells using a microfluidic cytometer. We not only argue our cell elasticity sensing method is reliable for already occurred entosis but also apply such method on predicting the "outer" cells in entosis of different cell types. The elasticity sensing method proposed in this manuscript is able to provide an effective and reliable way to further study deeper mechanism in cell entosis.
