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

motivationCell microscopy datasets have great diversity due to variability in cell types, imaging techniques and protocols. Existing methods are either tailored to specific datasets or are based on supervised learning, which requires comprehensive manual annotations. Using the latter approach, however, poses a significant difficulty due to the imbalance between the number of mitotic cells with respect to the entire cell population in a time-lapse microscopy sequence.

resultsWe present a fully unsupervised framework for both mitosis detection and mother-daughters association in fluorescence microscopy data. The proposed method accommodates the difficulty of the different cell appearances and dynamics. Addressing symmetric cell divisions, a key concept is utilizing daughters' similarity. Association is accomplished by defining cell neighborhood via a stochastic version of the Delaunay triangulation and optimization by dynamic programing. Our framework presents promising detection results for a variety of fluorescence microscopy datasets of different sources, including 2D and 3D sequences from the Cell Tracking Challenge. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: Code is available in github (github.com/topazgl/mitodix). SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
