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

backgroundPresenting a comprehensive picture of geographic data comprising multiple factors is an inherently integrative undertaking. Visualizing such data in an interactive form is essential for public sharing and geographic information systems (GIS) analysis. The Toxicological Prioritization Index (ToxPi) framework has been used as an integrative model layered atop geospatial data, and its deployment within the dynamic ArcGIS universe would open up powerful new avenues for sophisticated, interactive GIS analysis.

objectiveWe propose an actively developed suite of software, the ToxPi*GIS Toolkit, for creating, viewing, sharing, and analyzing interactive ToxPi figures in ArcGIS.

methodsThe ToxPi*GIS Toolkit is a collection of methods for creating interactive feature layers that contain ToxPi diagrams. It currently includes an ArcGIS Toolbox (

resultsMap visualizations created with the ToxPi*GIS Toolkit can be made freely available on public URLs, allowing users without ArcGIS Pro access or expertise to view and interact with them. Novice users with ArcGIS Pro access can create SIGNIFICANCE: Development of new features, which will advance the interests of the scientific community in many fields, is ongoing for the ToxPi*GIS Toolkit, which can be accessed from www.toxpi.org . IMPACT STATEMENT: Presenting a comprehensive picture of geographic data comprising multiple factors is an inherently integrative undertaking. Visualizing this data in an interactive form is essential for public sharing and geographic analysis. The ToxPi framework provides such integration, and ArcGIS offers interactive geographic mapping capability, but, so far, producing ToxPi figures in ArcGIS maps has not been possible. We propose the ToxPi*ArcGIS Toolkit, which enables the generation of ArcGIS feature layers that include interactive ToxPi figures. Further, we document the living code repository created for this method and outline workflows for sharing, creating, and embedding maps within a web dashboard. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: All applications, usage instructions, sample data, example visualizations, and open-source code are freely available from a dedicated GitHub page linked from www.toxpi.org . ArcGIS Pro can be obtained at https://www.esri.com/en-us/arcgis/products/arcgis-pro/overview .
