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

Drug repositioning for available medications can be preferred over traditional drug development, which requires substantially more effort to uncover new insights into medications and diseases. Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS) and Phenome-Wide Association Studies (PheWAS) are two complimentary methods for finding novel associations between genes and diseases. We hypothesize that discoveries from these studies could be leveraged to find new targets for existing drugs. Thus, we propose a framework to learn opportunities for inferring such relationships via overlapped genes between disease-associated genes (e.g. GWAS and PheWAS findings) and drugtargeted genes. We use drug indications found in Medication Indication Resource (MEDI) as a gold standard to evaluate if drug indications learned from GWAS and PheWAS findings have clinical indications. We examined 151,011 <drug, GWAS phenotype> pairs from 987 drugs across 153 diseases and 763 pairs were statistically significant. Out of these 763 pairs, 16 of them were found to have clinical indications.
