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

Live-cell imaging of fluorescent biosensors has demonstrated that space-time correlations in signalling of cell collectives play an important organisational role in morphogenesis, wound healing, regeneration, and maintaining epithelial homeostasis. Here, we demonstrate how to quantify one such phenomenon, namely apoptosis-induced ERK activity waves in the MCF10A epithelium. We present a protocol that starts from raw time-lapse fluorescence microscopy images and, through a sequence of image manipulations, ends with ARCOS, our computational method to detect and quantify collective signalling. We also describe the same workflow in the interactive napari image viewer to quantify collective phenomena for users without prior programming experience. Our approach can be applied to space-time correlations in cells, cell collectives, or communities of multicellular organisms, in 2D and 3D geometries.
