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

Cancer is a disease associated with the deregulation of multiple gene networks. Microarray data has permitted researchers to identify gene panel markers for diagnosis or prognosis of cancer but these are not sufficient to make specific mechanistic assertions about phenotype switches. We propose a strategy to identify putative mechanisms of cancer phenotypes by protein-protein interactions (PPI). We first extracted the logic status of a PPI via the relative expression of the corresponding gene pair. The joint association of a gene pair on a cancer phenotype was calculated by entropy minimization and assessed using a support vector machine. A typical predictor is "If Src high-expression, and Cav-1 low-expression, then cancer." We achieved 90% accuracy on test data with a majority of predictions associated with the MAPK pathway, focal adhesion, apoptosis and cell cycle. Our results can aid in the development of phenotype discrimination biomarkers and identification of putative therapeutic interference targets for drug development.
