Using Ion Substitution and Fluid Indicators to Monitor Macropinosome Dynamics in Live Cells.
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
All forms of endocytosis involve the incidental uptake of fluid (pinocytosis). Macropinocytosis is a specialized type of endocytosis that results in the bulk ingestion of extracellular fluid via large (>0.2 μm) vacuoles called macropinosomes. The process is a means of immune surveillance, a point of entry for intracellular pathogens, and a source of nutrients for proliferating cancer cells. Macropinocytosis has also recently emerged as a tractable system that can be experimentally exploited to understand fluid handling in the endocytic pathway. In this chapter, we describe how stimulating macropinocytosis in the presence of extracellular fluids of a defined ionic composition can be combined with high-resolution microscopy to understand the role of ion transport in controlling membrane traffic.
