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

There is more and more evidence that the mutation and dysregulation of long non-coding RNA (lncRNA) are associated with numerous diseases, including cancers. However, experimental methods to identify associations between lncRNAs and diseases are expensive and time-consuming. Effective computational approaches to identify disease-related lncRNAs are in high demand; and would benefit the detection of lncRNA biomarkers for disease diagnosis, treatment, and prevention. In light of some limitations of existing computational methods, we developed a global network random walk model for predicting lncRNA-disease associations (GrwLDA) to reveal the potential associations between lncRNAs and diseases. GrwLDA is a universal network-based method and does not require negative samples. This method can be applied to a disease with no known associated lncRNA (isolated disease) and to lncRNA with no known associated disease (novel lncRNA). The leave-one-out cross validation (LOOCV) method was implemented to evaluate the predicted performance of GrwLDA. As a result, GrwLDA obtained reliable AUCs of 0.9449, 0.8562, and 0.8374 for overall, novel lncRNA and isolated disease prediction, respectively, significantly outperforming previous methods. Case studies of colon, gastric, and kidney cancers were also implemented, and the top 5 disease-lncRNA associations were reported for each disease. Interestingly, 13 (out of the 15) associations were confirmed by literature mining.
