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

Considering that neurological injuries cannot typically self-recover, there is a need to develop new methods to study neuronal outgrowth in a controllable manner in vitro. In this study, a precise flow-controlled microfluidic system featuring custom-designed chambers that integrate laser-microstructured polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrates comprising microgrooves (MGs) was developed to investigate the combined effect of shear stress and topography on Neuro-2a (N2a) cells' behavior. The MGs were positioned parallel to the flow direction and the response of N2a cells was evaluated in terms of growth and differentiation. Our results demonstrate that flow-induced shear stress could inhibit the differentiation of N2a cells. This microfluidic system could potentially be used as a new model system to study the impact of shear stress on cell differentiation.
