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

The epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) alters cell-cell interactions to facilitate collective or individual migration during embryonic development, wound repair, or tumor invasion. Epithelial cells are typically cohesive and stationary while mesenchymal cells are individually dispersed and motile. Additional "partial" EMT states are thought to occur with distinct adhesive and migratory behaviors, but these functional phenotypes are poorly understood. Here, we show that cells treated with moderate TGF-
