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

Many molecular signals are known to be organized in subcellular regions termed microdomains. One example entails Rho GTPases, which control a range of cell behaviors through their functional patterning in spatiotemporal units. While fluorescent biosensors have allowed precise measurement of Rho GTPase activity in living cells, computational tools to delineate and track signaling microdomains in time-lapse image sequences of such biosensors do not exist. Here, we introduce a method that centers on the notion of activation time series coordination to identify signaling microdomains in space and time. After validating the algorithm with simulated microdomains, we show that our method identifies domains that support current hypotheses on the signaling architecture governing Rho GTPase organization and also respond to perturbation with optogenetics. A record of this paper's transparent peer review process is included in the supplemental information.
