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

Recently, with the rapid progress of high-throughput sequencing technology, diverse genomic data are easy to be obtained. To effectively exploit the value of those data, integrative methods are urgently needed. In this paper, based on SNF (Similarity Network Diffusion) [1], we proposed a new integrative method named ndmaSNF (network diffusion model assisted SNF), which can be used for cancer subtype discovery with the advantage of making use of somatic mutation data and other discrete data. Firstly, we incorporate network diffusion model on mutation data to make it smoothed and adaptive. Then, the mutation data along with other data types are utilized in the SNF framework by constructing patient-by-patient similarity networks for each data type. Finally, a fused patient network containing all the information from different input data types is obtained by using a nonlinear iterative method. The fused network can be used for cancer subtype discovery through the clustering algorithm. Experimental results on four cancer datasets showed that our ndmaSNF method can find subtypes with significant differences in the survival profile and other clinical features.
