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

Mutual exclusivity of cancer driving mutations is a frequently observed phenomenon in the mutational landscape of cancer. The long tail of rare mutations complicates the discovery of mutually exclusive driver modules. The existing methods usually suffer from the problem that only few genes in some identified modules cover most of the cancer samples. To overcome this hurdle, an efficient method UniCovEx is presented via identifying mutually exclusive driver modules of balanced exclusive coverages. UniCovEx first searches for candidate driver modules with a strong topological relationship in signaling networks using a greedy strategy. It then evaluates the candidate modules by considering their coverage, exclusivity, and balance of coverage, using a novel metric termed exclusive entropy of modules, which measures how balanced the modules are. Finally, UniCovEx predicts sample-specific driver modules by solving a minimum set cover problem using a greedy strategy. When tested on 12 The Cancer Genome Atlas datasets of different cancer types, UniCovEx shows a significant superiority over the previous methods. The software is available at: https://sourceforge.net/projects/cancer-pathway/files/.
