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

Capturing the full complexity of the diverse hierarchical interactions in the protein interactome is challenging. Here we report a DNA-barcoding method for the multiplexed mapping of pairwise and higher-order protein interactions and their dynamics within cells. The method leverages antibodies conjugated with barcoded DNA strands that can bidirectionally hybridize and covalently link to linearize closely spaced interactions within individual 3D protein complexes, encoding and decoding the protein constituents and the interactions among them. By mapping protein interactions in cancer cells and normal cells, we found that tumour cells exhibit a larger diversity and abundance of protein complexes with higher-order interactions. In biopsies of human breast-cancer tissue, the method accurately identified the cancer subtype and revealed that higher-order protein interactions are associated with cancer aggressiveness.
