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

Array CGH is a high-throughput technique designed to detect genomic alterations linked to the development and progression of cancer. The technique yields fluorescence ratios that characterize DNA copy number change in tumor versus healthy cells. Classification of tumors based on aCGH profiles is of scientific interest but the analysis of these data is complicated by the large number of highly correlated measures. In this article, we develop a supervised Bayesian latent class approach for classification that relies on a hidden Markov model to account for the dependence in the intensity ratios. Supervision means that classification is guided by a clinical endpoint. Posterior inferences are made about class-specific copy number gains and losses. We demonstrate our technique on a study of brain tumors, for which our approach is capable of identifying subsets of tumors with different genomic profiles, and differentiates classes by survival much better than unsupervised methods.
