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

Accumulating experimental evidence has demonstrated that microRNAs (miRNAs) have a huge impact on numerous critical biological processes and they are associated with different complex human diseases. Nevertheless, the task to predict potential miRNAs related to diseases remains difficult. In this paper, we developed a Kernel Fusion-based Regularized Least Squares for MiRNA-Disease Association prediction model (KFRLSMDA), which applied kernel fusion technique to fuse similarity matrices and then utilized regularized least squares to predict potential miRNA-disease associations. To prove the effectiveness of KFRLSMDA, we adopted leave-one-out cross-validation (LOOCV) and 5-fold cross-validation and then compared KFRLSMDA with 10 previous computational models (MaxFlow, MiRAI, MIDP, RKNNMDA, MCMDA, HGIMDA, RLSMDA, HDMP, WBSMDA and RWRMDA). Outperforming other models, KFRLSMDA achieved AUCs of 0.9246 in global LOOCV, 0.8243 in local LOOCV and average AUC of 0.9175 ± 0.0008 in 5-fold cross-validation. In addition, respectively, 96%, 100% and 90% of the top 50 potential miRNAs for breast neoplasms, colon neoplasms and oesophageal neoplasms were confirmed by experimental discoveries. We also predicted potential miRNAs related to hepatocellular cancer by removing all known related miRNAs of this cancer and 98% of the top 50 potential miRNAs were verified. Furthermore, we predicted potential miRNAs related to lymphoma using the data set in the old version of the HMDD database and 80% of the top 50 potential miRNAs were confirmed. Therefore, it can be concluded that KFRLSMDA has reliable prediction performance.
