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

Patient-derived tumor xenograft (PDX) mouse models are widely used for drug screening. The underlying assumption is that PDX tissue is very similar with the original patient tissue, and it has the same response to the drug treatment. To investigate whether the primary tumor site information is well preserved in PDX, we analyzed the gene expression profiles of PDX mouse models originated from different tissues, including breast, kidney, large intestine, lung, ovary, pancreas, skin, and soft tissues. The popular Monte Carlo feature selection method was employed to analyze the expression profile, yielding a feature list. From this list, incremental feature selection and support vector machine (SVM) were adopted to extract distinctively expressed genes in PDXs from different primary tumor sites and build an optimal SVM classifier. In addition, we also set up a group of quantitative rules to identify primary tumor sites. A total of 755 genes were extracted by the feature selection procedures, on which the SVM classifier can provide a high performance with MCC 0.986 on classifying primary tumor sites originated from different tissues. Furthermore, we obtained 16 classification rules, which gave a lower accuracy but clear classification procedures. Such results validated that the primary tumor site specificity was well preserved in PDX as the PDXs from different primary tumor sites were still very different and these PDX differences were similar with the differences observed in patients with tumor. For example,
