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 connectivity of a protein and its structure is related to its functional properties. Many experimental approaches have been employed for the identification of Diabetes Mellitus (DM) associated candidate genes. Therefore, it is of interest to use var ious graph centrality measures integrated with the genes associated with the human Diabetes Mellitus network for the identification of potential targets. We used 2728 genes known to cause Diabetes Mellitus from Jensenlab (Novo Nordisk Foundation Center for Protein Research, Denmark) for this analysis. A protein-protein interaction network was further constructed using a tool Centralities in Biological Networks (CentiBiN) with 1020 nodes after eliminating the duplicates, parallel edges, self -loop edges and unknown Human Protein Reference Database (HPRD) IDS. We used fourteen centralities measures which are useful in identifying the structural characteristic of individuals in the network. The results of the centrality measures are highly correlated. Thus, we identified genes that are critically associated with DM. We further report the top ten genes of all fourteen centrality measures for further consideration as targets for DM.
