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

backgroundDetection of splice sites plays a key role for predicting the gene structure and thus development of efficient analytical methods for splice site prediction is vital. This paper presents a novel sequence encoding approach based on the adjacent di-nucleotide dependencies in which the donor splice site motifs are encoded into numeric vectors. The encoded vectors are then used as input in Random Forest (RF), Support Vector Machines (SVM) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Bagging, Boosting, Logistic regression, kNN and Naïve Bayes classifiers for prediction of donor splice sites.

resultsThe performance of the proposed approach is evaluated on the donor splice site sequence data of Homo sapiens, collected from Homo Sapiens Splice Sites Dataset (HS3D). The results showed that RF outperformed all the considered classifiers. Besides, RF achieved higher prediction accuracy than the existing methods viz., MEM, MDD, WMM, MM1, NNSplice and SpliceView, while compared using an independent test dataset.

conclusionBased on the proposed approach, we have developed an online prediction server (MaLDoSS) to help the biological community in predicting the donor splice sites. The server is made freely available at http://cabgrid.res.in:8080/maldoss. Due to computational feasibility and high prediction accuracy, the proposed approach is believed to help in predicting the eukaryotic gene structure.
