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

With the overwhelming volume of genomic and molecular information available on many databases nowadays, researchers need from bioinformaticians more than encouragement to refine their searches. We present here GeneRanker, an online system that allows researchers to obtain a ranked list of genes potentially related to a specific disease or biological process by combining gene-disease (or genebiological process) associations with protein-protein interactions extracted from the literature, using computational analysis of the protein network topology to more accurately rank the predicted associations. GeneRanker was evaluated in the context of brain cancer research, and is freely available online at http://www.generanker.org.
