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

Protein sorting prediction, or protein subcellular location prediction, is an important task in bioinformatics. It is also a task where protein language models have proven their value in practice. SignalP 6.0 (for prediction of signal peptides), DeepLoc 2.1 (for prediction of subcellular location and membrane association in eukaryotes), and DeepLocPro 1.0 (for prediction of subcellular location in prokaryotes) are all based on large pretrained protein language models. This has led to substantial improvements over previous methods, especially for rare classes where available labeled data are limited.
