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

Mass-spectrometry (MS)-based single-cell proteomics (SCP) explores cellular heterogeneity by focusing on the functional effectors of the cells-proteins. However, extracting meaningful biological information from MS data is far from trivial, especially with single cells. Currently, data analysis workflows are substantially different from one research team to another. Moreover, it is difficult to evaluate pipelines as ground truths are missing. Our team has developed the R/Bioconductor package called scp to provide a standardized framework for SCP data analysis. It relies on the widely used QFeatures and SingleCellExperiment data structures. In addition, we used a design containing cell lines mixed in known proportions to generate controlled variability for data analysis benchmarking. In this chapter, we provide a flexible data analysis protocol for SCP data using the scp package together with comprehensive explanations at each step of the processing. Our main steps are quality control on the feature and cell level, aggregation of the raw data into peptides and proteins, normalization, and batch correction. We validate our workflow using our ground truth data set. We illustrate how to use this modular, standardized framework and highlight some crucial steps.
