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

Recent advances in high-throughput biotechnologies have provided an unprecedented opportunity for biomarker discovery, which, from a statistical point of view, can be cast as a variable selection problem. This problem is challenging due to the high-dimensional and non-linear nature of omics data and, in general, it suffers three difficulties: (i) an unknown functional form of the nonlinear system, (ii) variable selection consistency, and (iii) high-demanding computation. To circumvent the first difficulty, we employ a feed-forward neural network to approximate the unknown nonlinear function motivated by its universal approximation ability. To circumvent the second difficulty, we conduct structure selection for the neural network, which induces variable selection, by choosing appropriate prior distributions that lead to the consistency of variable selection. To circumvent the third difficulty, we implement the population stochastic approximation Monte Carlo algorithm, a parallel adaptive Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) algorithm, on the OpenMP platform which provides a linear speedup for the simulation with the number of cores of the computer. The numerical results indicate that the proposed method can work very well for identification of relevant variables for high-dimensional nonlinear systems. The proposed method is successfully applied to identification of the genes that are associated with anticancerdrug sensitivities based on the data collected in the cancer cell line encyclopedia (CCLE) study.
