Force-induced motions of the PIEZO1 blade probed with fluorimetry.
Article in Cell reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 10 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
Mechanical forces are thought to activate mechanosensitive PIEZO channels by changing the conformation of a large transmembrane blade domain. Yet, whether different stimuli induce identical conformational changes in this domain remains unclear. Here, we repurpose a cyclic permuted green fluorescent protein as a conformation-sensitive probe to track local rearrangements along the PIEZO1 blade. Two independent probes, one inserted in an extracellular site distal to the pore and the other in a distant intracellular proximal position, elicit sizable fluorescence signals when the tagged channels activate in response to fluid shear stress of low intensity. Neither cellular indentations nor osmotic swelling of the cell elicit detectable fluorescence signals from either probe, despite the ability of these stimuli to activate the tagged channels. High-intensity flow stimuli are ineffective at eliciting fluorescence signals from either probe. Together, these findings suggest that low-intensity fluid shear stress causes a distinct form of mechanical stress to the cell.
