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

Extracting signalling pathway activities from transcriptome data is important to infer mechanistic origins of transcriptomic dysregulation, for example in disease. A popular method to do so is by enrichment analysis of signature genes in e.g. differentially regulated genes. Previously, we derived signatures for signalling pathways by integrating public perturbation transcriptome data and generated a signature database called SPEED (Signalling Pathway Enrichment using Experimental Datasets), for which we here present a substantial upgrade as SPEED2. This web server hosts consensus signatures for 16 signalling pathways that are derived from a large number of transcriptomic signalling perturbation experiments. When providing a gene list of e.g. differentially expressed genes, the web server allows to infer signalling pathways that likely caused these genes to be deregulated. In addition to signature lists, we derive 'continuous' gene signatures, in a transparent and automated fashion without any fine-tuning, and describe a new algorithm to score these signatures.
