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

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in various biological processes, where lncRNA-protein interactions are usually involved. Therefore, identifying lncRNA-protein interactions is of great significance to understand the molecular functions of lncRNAs. Since the experiments to identify lncRNA-protein interactions are always costly and time consuming, computational methods are developed as alternative approaches. However, existing lncRNA-protein interaction predictors usually require prior knowledge of lncRNA-protein interactions with experimental evidences. Their performances are limited due to the number of known lncRNA-protein interactions. In this paper, we explored a novel way to predict lncRNA-protein interactions without direct prior knowledge. MiRNAs were picked up as mediators to estimate potential interactions between lncRNAs and proteins. By validating our results based on known lncRNA-protein interactions, our method achieved an AUROC (Area Under Receiver Operating Curve) of 0.821, which is comparable to the state-of-the-art methods. Moreover, our method achieved an improved AUROC of 0.852 by further expanding the training dataset. We believe that our method can be a useful supplement to the existing methods, as it provides an alternative way to estimate lncRNA-protein interactions in a heterogeneous network without direct prior knowledge.
