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

Cell fate decisions and transitions are common in almost all developmental processes. Therefore, it is important to identify the decision-making mechanisms and important individual molecules behind the fate decision processes. In this paper, we propose an interpretable strategy based on systematic perturbation, unsupervised hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA), machine learning (ML), and Shapley additive explanation (SHAP) analysis for inferring the contribution and importance of individual molecules in cell fate decision and transition processes. In order to verify feasibility of the approach, we apply it to the core epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT)-metastasis network. The key factors identified in EMT-metastasis are consistent with relevant experimental observations. The approach presented here can be applied to other biological networks to identify important factors related to cell fate decisions and transitions.
