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

Metadata is essential in proteomics data repositories and is crucial to interpret and reanalyze the deposited data sets. For every proteomics data set, we should capture at least three levels of metadata: (i) data set description, (ii) the sample to data files related information, and (iii) standard data file formats (e.g., mzIdentML, mzML, or mzTab). While the data set description and standard data file formats are supported by all ProteomeXchange partners, the information regarding the sample to data files is mostly missing. Recently, members of the European Bioinformatics Community for Mass Spectrometry (EuBIC) have created an open-source project called Sample to Data file format for Proteomics (https://github.com/bigbio/proteomics-metadata-standard/) to enable the standardization of sample metadata of public proteomics data sets. Here, the project is presented to the proteomics community, and we call for contributors, including researchers, journals, and consortiums to provide feedback about the format. We believe this work will improve reproducibility and facilitate the development of new tools dedicated to proteomics data analysis.
