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

Protein-protein interactions (PPIs) are crucial to mediate biological functions, and understanding PPIs in cancer type-specific context could help decipher the underlying molecular mechanisms of tumorigenesis and identify potential therapeutic options. Therefore, we update the Protein Interaction Network Analysis (PINA) platform to version 3.0, to integrate the unified human interactome with RNA-seq transcriptomes and mass spectrometry-based proteomes across tens of cancer types. A number of new analytical utilities were developed to help characterize the cancer context for a PPI network, which includes inferring proteins with expression specificity and identifying candidate prognosis biomarkers, putative cancer drivers, and therapeutic targets for a specific cancer type; as well as identifying pairs of co-expressing interacting proteins across cancer types. Furthermore, a brand-new web interface has been designed to integrate these new utilities within an interactive network visualization environment, which allows users to quickly and comprehensively investigate the roles of human interacting proteins in a cancer type-specific context. PINA is freely available at https://omics.bjcancer.org/pina/.
