STRprofiler: efficient comparisons of short tandem repeat profiles for biomedical model authentication.
Article in Bioinformatics (Oxford, England), 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
summaryShort tandem repeat (STR) profiling is commonly performed for authentication of biomedical models of human origin, yet no tools exist to easily compare sets of STR profiles to each other or an existing database in a high-throughput manner. Here, we present STRprofiler, a Python package, command line tool, and Shiny application providing methods for STR profile comparison and cross-contamination detection. STRprofiler can be run with custom databases or used to query against the Cellosaurus cell line database. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: STRprofiler is freely available as a Python package with a rich CLI from PyPI https://pypi.org/project/strprofiler/ with source code available under the MIT license on GitHub https://github.com/j-andrews7/strprofiler and at https://zenodo.org/records/10989034. A web server hosting an example STRprofiler Shiny application backed by a database with data from the National Cancer Institute-funded PDXNet consortium and The Jackson Laboratory PDX program is available at https://sj-bakerlab.shinyapps.io/strprofiler/. Full documentation is available at https://strprofiler.readthedocs.io/en/latest/.
