Text Categorization of Heart, Lung, and Blood Studies in the Database of Genotypes and Phenotypes (dbGaP) Utilizing n-grams and Metadata Features.
Article in Biomedical informatics insights, 2013. 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
The database of Genotypes and Phenotypes (dbGaP) allows researchers to understand phenotypic contribution to genetic conditions, generate new hypotheses, confirm previous study results, and identify control populations. However, effective use of the database is hindered by suboptimal study retrieval. Our objective is to evaluate text classification techniques to improve study retrieval in the context of the dbGaP database. We utilized standard machine learning algorithms (naive Bayes, support vector machines, and the C4.5 decision tree) trained on dbGaP study text and incorporated n-gram features and study metadata to identify heart, lung, and blood studies. We used the χ(2) feature selection algorithm to identify features that contributed most to classification performance and experimented with dbGaP associated PubMed papers as a proxy for topicality. Classifier performance was favorable in comparison to keyword-based search results. It was determined that text categorization is a useful complement to document retrieval techniques in the dbGaP.
