Robust two-gene classifiers for cancer prediction.
Article in Genomics, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Two-gene classifiers have attracted a broad interest for their simplicity and practicality. Most existing two-gene classification algorithms were involved in exhaustive search that led to their low time-efficiencies. In this study, we proposed two new two-gene classification algorithms which used simple univariate gene selection strategy and constructed simple classification rules based on optimal cut-points for two genes selected. We detected the optimal cut-point with the information entropy principle. We applied the two-gene classification models to eleven cancer gene expression datasets and compared their classification performance to that of some established two-gene classification models like the top-scoring pairs model and the greedy pairs model, as well as standard methods including Diagonal Linear Discriminant Analysis, k-Nearest Neighbor, Support Vector Machine and Random Forest. These comparisons indicated that the performance of our two-gene classifiers was comparable to or better than that of compared models.
