Biomimetic Approach of Brain Vasculature Rapidly Characterizes Inter- and Intra-Patient Migratory Diversity of Glioblastoma.
Article in Small methods, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Glioblastomas exhibit remarkable heterogeneity at various levels, including motility modes and mechanoproperties that contribute to tumor resistance and recurrence. In a recent study using gridded micropatterns mimicking the brain vasculature, glioblastoma cell motility modes, mechanical properties, formin content, and substrate chemistry are linked. Now is presented, SP2G (SPheroid SPreading on Grids), an analytic platform designed to identify the migratory modes of patient-derived glioblastoma cells and rapidly pinpoint the most invasive sub-populations. Tumorspheres are imaged as they spread on gridded micropatterns and analyzed by this semi-automated, open-source, Fiji macro suite that characterizes migration modes accurately. SP2G can reveal intra-patient motility heterogeneity with molecular correlations to specific integrins and EMT markers. This system presents a versatile and potentially pan-cancer workflow to detect diverse invasive tumor sub-populations in patient-derived specimens and offers a valuable tool for therapeutic evaluations at the individual patient level.
