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

Summary: Recent advances in sequence technology result in large datasets of sequence variants. For the human genome, several tools are available to predict the impact of these variants on gene and protein functions. However, for model organisms such as yeast such tools are lacking, specifically to predict the effect of protein sequence altering variants on the protein level. We present a python framework that enables users to map in a fully automated fashion large set of variants to protein functional regions and post-translationally modified residues. Furthermore, we provide the user with the possibility to retrieve predicted functional information on modified residues from other resources for example that are predicted to play a role in protein-protein interactions. The results are complemented by statistical tests to highlight the significance of underlying functions and pathways affected by mutations. We show the application of this package on a yeast dataset derived from a recent evolutionary experiment on adaptation to ethanol. Availability and Implementation: The package is available from https://github.com/CSB-KUL/yMap and is implemented in Python. Contact: vera.vannoort@biw.kuleuven.be. Supplementary information: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
