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

Tumors are mixtures of different compartments. While global gene expression analysis profiles the average expression of all compartments in a sample, identifying the specific contribution of each compartment remains a challenge. With the increasing recognition of the importance of non-neoplastic components, the ability to breakdown the gene expression contribution of each is critical. Here, we develop DECODER, an integrated framework which performs de novo deconvolution and single-sample compartment weight estimation. We use DECODER to deconvolve 33 TCGA tumor RNA-seq data sets and show that it may be applied to other data types including ATAC-seq. We demonstrate that it can be utilized to reproducibly estimate cellular compartment weights in pancreatic cancer that are clinically meaningful. Application of DECODER across cancer types advances the capability of identifying cellular compartments in an unknown sample and may have implications for identifying the tumor of origin for cancers of unknown primary.
