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

Copy number variations (CNVs) are one type of the human genetic variations and are pervasive in the human genome. It has been confirmed that they can play a causal role in complex diseases. Previous studies of CNVs focused more on identifying the disease-specific CNV regions or candidate genes on these CNV regions, but less on the synergistic actions between genes on CNV regions and other genes. Our research combined the CNVs with related gene co-expression to reconstruct gene co-expression network by using single nucleotide polymorphism microarray datasets and gene microarray datasets of breast cancer, and then extracted the modules which connected densely inside and analyzed the functions of modules. Interestingly, all of these modules' functions were related to breast cancer according to our enrichment analysis, and most of the genes in these modules have been reported to be involved in breast cancer. Our findings suggested that integrating CNVs and gene co-expressed relations was an available way to analyze the roles of CNV genes and their synergistic genes in breast cancer, and provided a novel insight into the pathological mechanism of breast cancer.
