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

motivationIn silico drug target prediction provides valuable information for drug repurposing, understanding of side effects as well as expansion of the druggable genome. In particular, discovery of actionable drug targets is critical to developing targeted therapies for diseases.

resultsHere, we develop a robust method for drug target prediction by leveraging a class imbalance-tolerant machine learning framework with a novel training scheme. We incorporate novel features, including drug-gene phenotype similarity and gene expression profile similarity that capture information orthogonal to other features. We show that our classifier achieves robust performance and is able to predict gene targets for new drugs as well as drugs that potentially target unexplored genes. By providing newly predicted drug-target associations, we uncover novel opportunities of drug repurposing that may benefit cancer treatment through action on either known drug targets or currently undrugged genes. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
