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

Accurate identification of spatial domains is essential in the analysis of spatial transcriptomics data in order to elucidate tissue microenvironments and biological functions. However, existing methods only perform domain segmentation based on local or global spatial relationships between spots, resulting in an underutilization of spatial information. To this end, we propose SECE, a deep learning-based method that captures both local and global relationships among spots and aggregates their information using expression similarity and spatial similarity. We benchmarked SECE against eight state-of-the-art methods on six real spatial transcriptomics datasets spanning four different platforms. SECE consistently outperformed other methods in spatial domain identification accuracy. Moreover, SECE produced spatial embeddings that exhibited clearer patterns in low-dimensional visualizations and facilitated a more accurate trajectory inference.
