Double Sided Traction Force Microscopy: A Method to Confine Cells for Physiologically Relevant Force Measurements.
Article in Cytoskeleton (Hoboken, N.J.), 2026. 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
In this paper we describe a technique to make a confined environment of variable stiffness that is suitable for high-resolution live-cell imaging. This versatile and adaptable technique enables cell confinement between soft elastic surfaces made from polyacrylamide gels. The two surfaces retain all their compatibility with multiple approaches to chemically couple adhesion proteins, and additional techniques like micropatterning and traction force microscopy. This method is thus well suited for measuring force production and migration of weakly adherent cells that struggle to migrate in traditional planar environments.
