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

Spatial context is becoming increasingly important in the omics disciplines. Spatial proteomics is a diverse field encompassing numerous techniques that provide both the location and identity of proteins in biological samples. Improving upon bulk analyses, spatial proteomics can map peptides and intact proteins within tissue. This review focuses on the application of matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization (MALDI) in spatial proteomics. Approaches are grouped into two general categories and discussed: protein MALDI MSI and MSI-guided spatial proteomics. A discussion of the workflow for each method is presented, and challenges to each approach are discussed. Recent and technically interesting cases in the literature are presented for each category. This review aims to guide researchers interested in MALDI protein imaging through the strengths, weaknesses, and technical considerations of the many workflows available to them.
