Determining mammalian cells state by fractal micromotion.
Article in Heliyon, 2024. 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
We applied four fractal dimension estimation algorithms on the temporal electrical impedance signal of normal MDCK type II cell cultures monitored by ECIS technique and showed that the fractal dimension due to micromotion allows discriminating processes not sensed by the spectral impedance of the culture. In this work we subjected cell cultures to electric current damage and drug exposure to analyze the changes in the fractal structure of the temporal signal. Among the changes presented and detected are the differentiation between a healthy monolayer and one exposed to a drug, as well as the distinction between a seeding process and a wound-healing process performed by electric current. The four algorithms used were validated by applying them on topological functions of known fractal dimension, a study that determined the necessary conditions for a correct estimation.
