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

Identifying and annotating distal regulatory enhancers is critical to understand the mechanisms that control gene expression and cell-type-specific activities. Next-generation sequencing techniques have provided us an exciting toolkit of genome-wide assays that can be used to predict and annotate enhancers. However, each assay comes with its own specific set of analytical needs if enhancer prediction is to be optimal. Furthermore, integration of multiple genome-wide assays allows for different genomic features to be combined, and can improve predictive performance. Herein, we review the genome-wide assays and analysis schemes that are used to predict and annotate enhancers. In particular, we focus on three key computational topics: predicting enhancer locations, determining the cell-type-specific activity of enhancers, and linking enhancers to their target genes.
