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

backgroundLately, biomarker discovery has become one of the most significant research issues in the biomedical field. Owing to the presence of high-throughput technologies, genomic data, such as microarray data and RNA-seq, have become widely available. Many kinds of feature selection techniques have been applied to retrieve significant biomarkers from these kinds of data. However, they tend to be noisy with high-dimensional features and consist of a small number of samples; thus, conventional feature selection approaches might be problematic in terms of reproducibility.

resultsIn this article, we propose a stable feature selection method for high-dimensional datasets. We apply an ensemble L

conclusionA comparison with established algorithms, i.e., a fast correlation-based filter, random forest, and an ensemble version of an L
