UNIPred-Web: a web tool for the integration and visualization of biomolecular networks for protein function prediction.
Article in BMC bioinformatics, 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
backgroundOne of the main issues in the automated protein function prediction (AFP) problem is the integration of multiple networked data sources. The UNIPred algorithm was thereby proposed to efficiently integrate -in a function-specific fashion- the protein networks by taking into account the imbalance that characterizes protein annotations, and to subsequently predict novel hypotheses about unannotated proteins. UNIPred is publicly available as R code, which might result of limited usage for non-expert users. Moreover, its application requires efforts in the acquisition and preparation of the networks to be integrated. Finally, the UNIPred source code does not handle the visualization of the resulting consensus network, whereas suitable views of the network topology are necessary to explore and interpret existing protein relationships.
resultsWe address the aforementioned issues by proposing UNIPred-Web, a user-friendly Web tool for the application of the UNIPred algorithm to a variety of biomolecular networks, already supplied by the system, and for the visualization and exploration of protein networks. We support different organisms and different types of networks -e.g., co-expression, shared domains and physical interaction networks. Users are supported in the different phases of the process, ranging from the selection of the networks and the protein function to be predicted, to the navigation of the integrated network. The system also supports the upload of user-defined protein networks. The vertex-centric and the highly interactive approach of UNIPred-Web allow a narrow exploration of specific proteins, and an interactive analysis of large sub-networks with only a few mouse clicks.
conclusionsUNIPred-Web offers a practical and intuitive (visual) guidance to biologists interested in gaining insights into protein biomolecular functions. UNIPred-Web provides facilities for the integration of networks, and supplies a framework for the imbalance-aware protein network integration of nine organisms, the prediction of thousands of GO protein functions, and a easy-to-use graphical interface for the visual analysis, navigation and interpretation of the integrated networks and of the functional predictions.
