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

The Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database is an excellent public source of whole transcriptomic profiles of multiple cancers. The main challenge is the limited accessibility of such large-scale genomic data to people without a background in bioinformatics or computer science. This presents difficulties in data analysis, sharing and visualization. Here, we present an integrated bioinformatics pipeline and a normalized dataset that has been preprocessed using a robust statistical methodology; allowing others to perform large-scale meta-analysis, without having to conduct time-consuming data mining and statistical correction. Comprising 1,118 patient-derived samples, the normalized dataset includes primary non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) tumors and paired normal lung tissues from ten independent GEO datasets, facilitating differential expression analysis. The data has been merged, normalized, batch effect-corrected and filtered for genes with low variance via multiple open source R packages integrated into our workflow. Overall this dataset (with associated clinical metadata) better represents the diseased population and serves as a powerful tool for early predictive biomarker discovery.
