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

Cells move by forming specialized projections or invasive feet known as podosomes in normal invasive cells and invadopodia in transformed and cancer cells. An understanding of invasive projections of trophoblasts at the maternal-fetal interface and their formation is important for developing novel therapies for pregnancy complications where invasion is abnormal, in instances where over- or under-invasion of cells manifests as serious pregnancy pathologies such as accreta or preeclampsia. Podosomes and invadopodia have distinctive morphological and molecular features that are used to distinguish them from each other. Despite this, there is still debate and uncertainty around how to definitively classify them. Analyses of novel models of cell invasion have demonstrated the existence of hybrid structures that are neither true podosomes nor invadopodia but which display features of both. This raises the question as to whether the classification of invasive structures needs redefining.
