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

Family-based design is one of the most popular designs in genetic studies and has many unique features for risk-prediction research. It is robust against genetic heterogeneity, and the relatedness among family members can be informative for predicting an individual's risk for disease with polygenic and shared environmental components of risk. Despite these strengths, family-based designs have been used infrequently in current risk-prediction studies, and their related statistical methods have not been well developed. In this article, we developed a generalized random field (GRF) method for family-based risk-prediction modeling on sequencing data. In GRF, subjects' phenotypes are viewed as stochastic realizations of a random field in a space, and a subject's phenotype is predicted by adjacent subjects, where adjacencies between subjects are determined by their genetic and within-family similarities. Different from existing methods that adjust for familial correlations, the GRF uses this information to form surrogates to further improve prediction accuracy. It also uses within-family information to capture predictors (
