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

Motivation: Cell communication is predominantly governed by secreted proteins, whose diverse secretion patterns often signify underlying physiological irregularities. Understanding these secreted signals at an individual cell level is crucial for gaining insights into regulatory mechanisms involving various molecular agents. To elucidate the array of cell secretion signals, which encompass different types of biomolecular secretion cues from individual immune cells, we introduce the secretion-signal map (S2Map). Results: S2Map is an online interactive analytical platform designed to explore and interpret distinct cell secretion-signal patterns visually. It incorporates two innovative qualitative metrics, the signal inequality index and the signal coverage index, which are exquisitely sensitive in measuring dissymmetry and diffusion of signals in temporal data. S2Map's innovation lies in its depiction of signals through time-series analysis with multi-layer visualization. We tested the SII and SCI performance in distinguishing the simulated signal diffusion models. S2Map hosts a repository for the single-cell's secretion-signal data for exploring cell secretio-types, a new cell phenotyping based on the cell secretion signal pattern. We anticipate that S2Map will be a powerful tool to delve into the complexities of physiological systems, providing insights into the regulation of protein production, such as cytokines at the remarkable resolution of single cells. Availability and implementation: The S2Map server is publicly accessible via https://au-s2map.streamlit.app/.
