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

The nanoscale organisation of proteins plays a key role in diverse cellular processes, including signalling, adhesion, and structural integrity. Single-molecule localisation microscopy (SMLM) is a super-resolution imaging technique that captures the spatial distributions of proteins in cells with nanometre precision, enabling detailed studies of protein clustering and architecture. However, comparing such data across experiments remains challenging due to a lack of curated, functional resources. Here we present a publicly accessible, curated, and functional resource, termed "nano-org", containing SMLM data representing the nanoscale distributions of proteins in cells. Nano-org is searchable by comparing the statistical similarity of the datasets it contains. This unique functionality allows the resource to be used to understand the relationships of nanoscale architectures between proteins, cell types or conditions, supporting the development of the field of spatial nano-omics.
