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

This work focused on generating a three-dimensional (3D) in vitro dynamic model to study chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) cell dissemination, homing, and mechanisms of therapy resistance. We used a gelatin-based, hard porous biomaterial as a support matrix to develop 3D tissue-like models of the human lymph node and bone marrow, which were matured inside bioreactors under dynamic perfusion of medium. Comparing static and dynamic cultures of these 3D constructs revealed that perfusion promoted a tissue-like internal organization of cells, characterized by the expression of specific functional markers and deposition of an intricate extracellular matrix protein network. Recirculation of CLL cells within the dynamic system led to changes in leukemic cell behavior and in the expression of key markers involved in tumor progression. These findings suggest that the model is well suited for investigating the pathophysiological mechanisms of CLL and potentially other hematological malignancies.
