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

To survive, cells are able to adapt to a wide range of adverse conditions, such as varying pH from optimal (~7.4). They do this through mechanisms including acid-sensing ion channels, which alter cytosolic ion content and thus the cell's electrophysiological profile. However, the impact of this adaptation on cellular electrophysiology remains unexplored. We investigated the effects of culture at a range of extracellular pH on the electrophysiological features of breast cancer cell lines MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7. Cells were subject to an acid-neutral-base pH from 3.0 to 9.2, after which their membrane potential (
