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

Pathway analysis is a powerful method for discerning differentially regulated genes and elucidating their biological importance. It allows for the identification of perturbed or aberrantly expressed genes within a biological context from extensive data sets and offers a simplistic approach for interrogating such data sets. With the growing use of microarrays and RNA-Seq, data for genome-wide studies are growing at an alarming rate, and the use of deep sequencing is revealing elements of the genome previously uncharacterised. Through the employment of pathway analysis, mechanisms in complex diseases may be explored and novel causatives found primarily through differentially regulated genes. Further, with the implementation of next generation sequencing, a deeper resolution may be attained, particularly in identification of isoform diversity and SNPs. Here, we look at a broad overview of pathway analysis in the human brain transcriptome and its relevance in teasing out underlying causes of complex diseases. We will outline processes in data gathering and analysis of particular diseases in which these approaches have been successful.
