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

motivationThe concept of a 'mechanism-based taxonomy of human disease' is currently replacing the outdated paradigm of diseases classified by clinical appearance. We have tackled the paradigm of mechanism-based patient subgroup identification in the challenging area of research on neurodegenerative diseases.

resultsWe have developed a knowledge base representing essential pathophysiology mechanisms of neurodegenerative diseases. Together with dedicated algorithms, this knowledge base forms the basis for a 'mechanism-enrichment server' that supports the mechanistic interpretation of multiscale, multimodal clinical data. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: NeuroMMSig is available at http://neurommsig.scai.fraunhofer.de/. CONTACT: martin.hofmann-apitius@scai.fraunhofer.de. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
