The TissueTractor, a device for applying large strains to tissues and cells for simultaneous high-resolution live cell microscopy.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 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
Mechanical strain substantially influences tissue shape and function in various contexts, from embryonic development to disease progression. Disruptions in these processes can result in congenital abnormalities and short-circuit mechanotransduction pathways. Manipulating strain in live tissues is crucial for understanding its impact on cellular and subcellular activities. Existing tools, such as optogenetic modulation of strain, are limited to small strain over limited distance and durations. Here, we introduce a high-strain stretcher system, the TissueTractor, designed for high-resolution spatiotemporal imaging of live tissues, enabling strain application varying from 0% to over 150%. This system is needed to unravel the intricate connections between mechanical forces and developmental processes. We demonstrated the stretcher with
