deep-Sep: a deep learning-based method for fast and accurate prediction of selenoprotein genes in bacteria.
Article in mSystems, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
Selenoproteins are a special group of proteins with major roles in cellular antioxidant defense. They contain the 21st amino acid selenocysteine (Sec) in the active sites, which is encoded by an in-frame UGA codon. Compared to eukaryotes, identification of selenoprotein genes in bacteria remains challenging due to the absence of an effective strategy for distinguishing the Sec-encoding UGA codon from a normal stop signal. In this study, we have developed a deep learning-based algorithm, deep-Sep, for quickly and precisely identifying selenoprotein genes in bacterial genomic sequences. This algorithm uses a Transformer-based neural network architecture to construct an optimal model for detecting Sec-encoding UGA codons and a homology search-based strategy to remove additional false positives. During the training and testing stages, deep-Sep has demonstrated commendable performance, including an
