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

We developed pISA-tree, a straightforward and flexible data management solution for organisation of life science project-associated research data and metadata. pISA-tree was initiated by end-user requirements thus its strong points are practicality and low maintenance cost. It enables on-the-fly creation of enriched directory tree structure (project/Investigation/Study/Assay) based on the ISA model, in a standardised manner via consecutive batch files. Templates-based metadata is generated in parallel at each level enabling guided submission of experiment metadata. pISA-tree is complemented by two R packages, pisar and seekr. pisar facilitates integration of pISA-tree datasets into bioinformatic pipelines and generation of ISA-Tab exports. seekr enables synchronisation with the FAIRDOMHub repository. Applicability of pISA-tree was demonstrated in several national and international multi-partner projects. The system thus supports findable, accessible, interoperable and reusable (FAIR) research and is in accordance with the Open Science initiative. Source code and documentation of pISA-tree are available at https://github.com/NIB-SI/pISA-tree .
