Towards scaling elementary flux mode computation.
Article in Briefings in bioinformatics, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
While elementary flux mode (EFM) analysis is now recognized as a cornerstone computational technique for cellular pathway analysis and engineering, EFM application to genome-scale models remains computationally prohibitive. This article provides a review of aspects of EFM computation that elucidates bottlenecks in scaling EFM computation. First, algorithms for computing EFMs are reviewed. Next, the impact of redundant constraints, sensitivity to constraint ordering and network compression are evaluated. Then, the advantages and limitations of recent parallelization and GPU-based efforts are highlighted. The article then reviews alternative pathway analysis approaches that aim to reduce the EFM solution space. Despite advances in EFM computation, our review concludes that continued scaling of EFM computation is necessary to apply EFM to genome-scale models. Further, our review concludes that pathway analysis methods that target specific pathway properties can provide powerful alternatives to EFM analysis.
