1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

In this chapter, we describe the design and manufacture of a Lab-on-a-Chip (LoC) device suitable for measuring the μN forces exerted by tips of growing Phytophthora hyphae. LoC describes microfluidic devices, typically made of the polymer polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS), that are increasingly being used to answer fundamental questions in biological, chemical, physical, and medical research. These LoC devices enable the integration of several laboratory functions on small plastic devices that are quick to produce and easy to replicate. While we describe the design and manufacture of one particular device, the methods covered are applicable to any chip design, and such devices could be used to investigate many aspects of Phytophthora biology.
