The Classical Matrigel Angiogenesis Model Revisited: Key Regulators and Comparative Analysis with 2D/3D Co-Culture Systems.
Article in Bulletin of experimental biology and medicine, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Capillary-like network (CLN) formation on Matrigel is a classical model for assessing the angiogenic properties of cells, though the underlying mechanisms vary across cell types. We identified two distinct CLN formation patterns and evaluated how each type characterizes the angiogenic potential of cells. Only endothelial cells (ECs) capable of elongating during CLN assembly on Matrigel exhibited angiogenic activity in other in vitro models (2D and 3D). Transcriptional profiling of ECs in a 2D co-culture with MSCs showed that CLN formation coincided with the upregulation of genes encoding tight junction proteins, Notch pathway components, and syndecan-2. Stromal cells are also capable of forming CLNs on Matrigel and in 3D model, underscoring their physiological role in tissue remodeling and homeostasis through network assembly.
