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

Multiple high-throughput genetic interaction studies have provided substantial evidence of modularity in genetic interaction networks. However, the correspondence between these network modules and specific pathways of information flow is often ambiguous. Genetic interaction and molecular interaction analyses have not generated large-scale maps comprising multiple clearly delineated linear pathways. We seek to clarify the situation by discerning the difference between genetic modules and classical pathways. We review a method to optimize the discovery of biologically meaningful genetic modules based on a previously described context-dependent information measure to obtain maximally informative networks. We compare the results of this method with the established measures of network clustering and find that it balances global and local clustering information in networks. We further discuss the consequences for genetic interaction networks and propose a framework for the analysis of genetic modularity.
