AlignScape, displaying sequence similarity using self-organizing maps.
Article in Frontiers in bioinformatics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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
The current richness of sequence data needs efficient methodologies to display and analyze the complexity of the information in a compact and readable manner. Traditionally, phylogenetic trees and sequence similarity networks have been used to display and analyze sequences of protein families. These methods aim to shed light on key computational biology problems such as sequence classification and functional inference. Here, we present a new methodology, AlignScape, based on self-organizing maps. AlignScape is applied to three large families of proteins: the kinases and GPCRs from human, and bacterial T6SS proteins. AlignScape provides a map of the similarity landscape and a tree representation of multiple sequence alignments These representations are useful to display, cluster, and classify sequences as well as identify functional trends. The efficient GPU implementation of AlignScape allows the analysis of large MSAs in a few minutes. Furthermore, we show how the AlignScape analysis of proteins belonging to the T6SS complex can be used to predict coevolving partners.
