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

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a common disease that affects the normal functioning of the human pulmonary arteries. The peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PMBCs) served as an ideal source for a minimally invasive disease diagnosis. This study hypothesized that the transcriptional fluctuations in the PMBCs exposed to the PH arteries may stably reflect the disease. However, the dimension of a human transcriptome is much higher than the number of samples in all the existing datasets. So, an ensemble feature selection algorithm, EnRank, was proposed to integrate the ranking information of four popular feature selection algorithms, i.e., T-test (Ttest), Chi-squared test (Chi2), ridge regression (Ridge), and Least Absolute Shrinkage and Selection Operator (Lasso). Our results suggested that the EnRank-detected biomarkers provided useful information from these four feature selection algorithms and achieved very good prediction accuracy in predicting the PH patients. Many of the EnRank-detected biomarkers were also supported by the literature.
