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

Multimarker fluorescence analysis of tissue specimens offers the opportunity to probe the expression levels and locations of multiple markers in a single sample. Software is needed to fully capitalize on the advantages of this technology for sensitive, quantitative, and multiplexed data collection. A major challenge has been the automated identification and quantification of signals. We report on the software SignalFinder-IF, which meets that need. SignalFinder-IF uses a newly developed algorithm called Segment-Fit Thresholding, which showed robust performance for automated signal identification in side-by-side comparisons with several current methods. Two utilities provided with SignalFinder-IF enable downstream analyses. The first allows the quantification and mapping of relationships between an unlimited number of markers through user-defined sequences of AND, OR, and NOT operators. The second produces composite pictures of the signals or colocalization analysis on brightfield hematoxylin and eosin images, which is useful for understanding the morphologies and locations of cells meeting specific marker criteria. SignalFinder-IF enables high-throughput, rigorous analyses of whole-slide, multimarker data, and it promises to open new possibilities in many research and clinical applications.
