Mechanical communication and function regulation of immune cells.
Review in Fundamental research, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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
As the pivotal components of the immune system, immune cells can migrate rapidly and with flexibility to fulfill their critical functions. The cytoskeleton and mechano-sensitive proteins anchored within them play a crucial role in mechano-transduction, facilitating the conversion of mechanical signals into responses within the immune cells when they encounter external stimuli. In recent years, an increasing number of studies have revealed that mechanical signals play important roles in the immune response. This article reviews advanced techniques for analyzing cellular-level mechanical forces and provides insights into the current understanding of mechanical signals in the immune system. It describes how mechano-sensitive proteins collaborate to mediate mechano-transduction and examines the profound impact of mechanical signals on immune cell functions. This review highlights the growing importance of mechano-biology in the immune system and offers a glimpse of exciting future developments in this emerging field.
