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

CircRNA is a special type of non-coding RNA, which is closely related to the occurrence and development of many complex human diseases. However, it is time-consuming and expensive to determine the circRNA-disease associations through experimental methods. Therefore, based on the existing databases, we propose a method named RWRKNN, which integrates the random walk with restart (RWR) and k-nearest neighbors (KNN) to predict the associations between circRNAs and diseases. Specifically, we apply RWR algorithm on weighting features with global network topology information, and employ KNN to classify based on features. Finally, the prediction scores of each circRNA-disease pair are obtained. As demonstrated by leave-one-out, 5-fold cross-validation and 10-fold cross-validation, RWRKNN achieves AUC values of 0.9297, 0.9333 and 0.9261, respectively. And case studies show that the circRNA-disease associations predicted by RWRKNN can be successfully demonstrated. In conclusion, RWRKNN is a useful method for predicting circRNA-disease associations.
