Quantifying Spatial Patterns of Tissue Stiffness Within the Embryonic Mouse Kidney.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Biophysical factors, including changes in mechanical stiffness, have been shown to influence the morphogenesis of developing organs. There is a lack of experimental techniques, however, that can probe the mechanical properties of embryonic tissues-especially those which are not mechanically or optically accessible, such as the visceral organs of the developing mouse embryo. Here, using the embryonic kidney as a model system, we describe a method to use microindentation to quantify tissue-level regional differences in the mechanical properties of an embryonic organ. This technique is generalizable and can be used to quantify patterns of tissue stiffness within other developing organ systems. Going forward, these data will enable new experimental studies of the role of biophysical cues during organogenesis.
