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 study addresses the inaccuracy of the Hertz model in measuring single-cell Young's modulus via probe-based indentation. We propose two complementary correction strategies: finite element model optimization and an algebraic compensation algorithm. Both methods significantly enhance measurement accuracy and consistency within the biologically relevant 400-1200 Pa range (typical for adherent cancer cells). The compensation algorithm achieves a relative error below 5.2%. This work establishes a robust framework for cellular mechanical characterization, paving the way for incorporating greater biological complexity in future models.
