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

motivationThe theoretical possibility of determining the state and parameters of a dynamic model by measuring its outputs is given by its structural identifiability and its observability. These properties should be analysed before attempting to calibrate a model, but their a priori analysis can be challenging, requiring symbolic calculations that often have a high computational cost. In recent years, a number of software tools have been developed for this task, mostly in the systems biology community. These tools have vastly different features and capabilities, and a critical assessment of their performance is still lacking.

resultsHere, we present a comprehensive study of the computational resources available for analysing structural identifiability. We consider 13 software tools developed in 7 programming languages and evaluate their performance using a set of 25 case studies created from 21 models. Our results reveal their strengths and weaknesses, provide guidelines for choosing the most appropriate tool for a given problem and highlight opportunities for future developments.
