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

backgroundThe associations between genes and diseases are of critical significance in aspects of prevention, diagnosis and treatment. Although gene-disease relationships have been investigated extensively, much of the underpinnings of these associations are yet to be elucidated.

methodsA novel method integrates MeSH database, term weight (TW), and co-occurrence methods to predict gene-disease associations based on the cosine similarity between gene vectors and disease vectors. Vectors are transformed from the texts of documents in the PubMed database according to the appearance and location of the gene or disease terms. The disease related text data has been optimized during the process of constructing vectors.

resultsThe overall distribution of cosine similarity value was investigated. By using the gene-disease association data in OMIM database as golden standard, the performance of cosine similarity in predicting gene-disease linkage was evaluated. The effects of applying weight matrix, penalty weights for keywords (PWK), and normalization were also investigated. Finally, we demonstrated that our method outperforms heterogeneous network edge prediction (HNEP) in aspects of precision rate and recall rate.

conclusionsOur method proposed in this paper is easy to be conducted and the results can be integrated with other models to improve the overall performance of gene-disease association predictions.
