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

In a living organism, tens of thousands of genes are expressed and interact with each other to achieve necessary cellular functions. Gene regulatory networks contain information on regulatory mechanisms and the functions of gene expressions. Thus, incorporating network structures, discerned either through biological experiments or statistical estimations, could potentially increase the selection and estimation accuracy of genes associated with a phenotype of interest. Here, we considered a gene selection problem using gene expression data and the graphical structures found in gene networks. Because gene expression measurements are intermediate phenotypes between a trait and its associated genes, we adopted an instrumental variable regression approach. We treated genetic variants as instrumental variables to address the endogeneity issue. We proposed a two-step estimation procedure. In the first step, we applied the LASSO algorithm to estimate the effects of genetic variants on gene expression measurements. In the second step, the projected expression measurements obtained from the first step were treated as input variables. A graph-constrained regularization method was adopted to improve the efficiency of gene selection and estimation. We theoretically showed the selection consistency of the estimation method and derived the
