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

Metabolite annotation from imaging mass spectrometry (imaging MS) data is a difficult undertaking that is extremely resource intensive. Here, we adapted METASPACE, cloud software for imaging MS metabolite annotation and data interpretation, to quickly annotate microbial specialized metabolites from high-resolution and high-mass accuracy imaging MS data. Compared with manual ion image and MS1 annotation, METASPACE is faster and, with the appropriate database, more accurate. We applied it to data from microbial colonies grown on agar containing 10 diverse bacterial species and showed that METASPACE was able to annotate 53 ions corresponding to 32 different microbial metabolites. This demonstrates METASPACE to be a useful tool to annotate the chemistry and metabolic exchange factors found in microbial interactions, thereby elucidating the functions of these molecules.
