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

The identification of gene coding regions of DNA sequences through digital signal processing techniques based on the so-called 3-base periodicity has been an emerging problem in bioinformatics. The signal to noise ratio (SNR) of a DNA sequence is computed after mapping the DNA symbolic sequence into numerical sequences. Typical mapping schemes include the Voss, Z-curve and tetrahedron representations and the like, which have been used to construct gene coding region detecting algorithms. In this paper, an extended definition of SNR is proposed, which has less computational cost and wider applicability than its original ones. Furthermore, we analyze the SNRs of different mapping schemes and derive the general relationship between Voss based SNR and that of its general affine transformations. We conclude that the SNRs of Z-curve and tetrahedron map are also linearly proportional to that of Voss map. Not only is our conclusion instructional for the design of other affine transformations, but it is also of much significance in understanding the role of the symbolic-to-numerical mapping in the detection of gene coding regions.
