An R package for generic modular response analysis and its application to estrogen and retinoic acid receptor crosstalk.
Article in Scientific reports, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
Modular response analysis (MRA) is a widely used inference technique developed to uncover directions and strengths of connections in molecular networks under a steady-state condition by means of perturbation experiments. We devised several extensions of this methodology to search genomic data for new associations with a biological network inferred by MRA, to improve the predictive accuracy of MRA-inferred networks, and to estimate confidence intervals of MRA parameters from datasets with low numbers of replicates. The classical MRA computations and their extensions were implemented in a freely available R package called aiMeRA ( https://github.com/bioinfo-ircm/aiMeRA/ ). We illustrated the application of our package by assessing the crosstalk between estrogen and retinoic acid receptors, two nuclear receptors implicated in several hormone-driven cancers, such as breast cancer. Based on new data generated for this study, our analysis revealed potential cross-inhibition mediated by the shared corepressors NRIP1 and LCoR. We designed aiMeRA for non-specialists and to allow biologists to perform their own analyses.
