Advancing Platelet Research Through Live-Cell Imaging: Challenges, Techniques, and Insights.
Review in Sensors (Basel, Switzerland), 2025. 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
Platelet cells are essential to maintain haemostasis and play a critical role in thrombosis. They swiftly respond to vascular injury by adhering to damaged vessel surfaces, activating signalling pathways, and aggregating with each other to control bleeding. This dynamic process of platelet activation is intricately coordinated, spanning from membrane receptor maturation to intracellular interactions to whole-cell responses. Live-cell imaging has become an invaluable tool for dissecting these complexes. Despite its benefits, live imaging of platelets presents significant technical challenges. This review addresses these challenges, identifying key areas in need of further development and proposing possible solutions. We also focus on the dynamic processes of platelet adhesion, activation, and aggregation in haemostasis and thrombosis, applying imaging capacities from the microscale to the nanoscale. By exploring various live imaging techniques, we demonstrate how these approaches offer crucial insights into platelet biology and deepen our understanding of these three core events. In conclusion, this review provides an overview of the imaging methods currently available for studying platelet dynamics, guiding researchers in selecting suitable techniques for specific studies. By advancing our knowledge of platelet behaviour, these imaging methods contribute to research on haemostasis, thrombosis, and platelet-related diseases, ultimately aiming to improve clinical outcomes.
