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

Analyzing the genetic activity of breast cancer survival for a specific type of therapy provides a better understanding of the body response to the treatment and helps select the best course of action and while leading to the design of drugs based on gene activity. In this work, we use supervised and nonsupervised machine learning methods to deal with a multiclass classification problem in which we label the samples based on the combination of the 5-year survivability and treatment; we focus on hormone therapy, radiotherapy, and surgery. The proposed nonsupervised hierarchical models are created to find the highest separability between combinations of the classes. The supervised model consists of a combination of feature selection techniques and efficient classifiers used to find a potential set of biomarker genes specific to response to therapy. The results show that different models achieve different performance scores with accuracies ranging from 80.9% to 100%. We have investigated the roles of many biomarkers through the literature and found that some of the discriminative genes in the computational model such as
