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 National Cancer Institute Thesaurus (NCIt) is a reference terminology used to support clinical, translational and basic research as well as administrative activities. As medical knowledge evolves, concepts that might be missing from a particular needed subdomain are regularly added to the NCIt. However, terminology development is known to be labor-intensive and error-prone. Therefore, cost-effective semi-automated methods for identifying potentially missing concepts would be useful to terminology curators. Previously, we have developed a structural method leveraging the native term mappings of the Unified Medical Language System to identify potential concepts in several of its source vocabularies to enrich the SNOMED CT. In this paper, we tested an analogous method for NCIt. Concepts from eight UMLS source terminologies were identified as possibilities to enrich NCIt's conceptual content.
