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

motivationLarge-scale kinetic models are an invaluable tool to understand the dynamic and adaptive responses of biological systems. The development and application of these models have been limited by the availability of computational tools to build and analyze large-scale models efficiently. The toolbox presented here provides the means to implement, parameterize and analyze large-scale kinetic models intuitively and efficiently.

resultsWe present a Python package (SKiMpy) bridging this gap by implementing an efficient kinetic modeling toolbox for the semiautomatic generation and analysis of large-scale kinetic models for various biological domains such as signaling, gene expression and metabolism. Furthermore, we demonstrate how this toolbox is used to parameterize kinetic models around a steady-state reference efficiently. Finally, we show how SKiMpy can implement multispecies bioreactor simulations to assess biotechnological processes. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: The software is available as a Python 3 package on GitHub: https://github.com/EPFL-LCSB/SKiMpy, along with adequate documentation. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
