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

backgroundDrug development is an expensive and time-consuming process. Literature-based discovery has played a critical role in drug development and may be a supplementary method to help scientists speed up the discovery of drugs.

methodsHere, we propose a relation path features embedding based convolutional neural network model with attention mechanism for drug discovery from literature, which we denote as PACNN. First, we use predications from biomedical abstracts to construct a biomedical knowledge graph, and then apply a path ranking algorithm to extract drug-disease relation path features on the biomedical knowledge graph. After that, we use these drug-disease relation features to train a convolutional neural network model which combined with the attention mechanism. Finally, we employ the trained models to mine drugs for treating diseases.

resultsThe experiment shows that the proposed model achieved promising results, comparing to several random walk algorithms.

conclusionsIn this paper, we propose a relation path features embedding based convolutional neural network with attention mechanism for discovering potential drugs from literature. Our method could be an auxiliary method for drug discovery, which can speed up the discovery of new drugs for the incurable diseases.
