High-Dimensional Mediation Analysis With Confounders in Survival Models.
Article in Frontiers in genetics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 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
Mediation analysis is a common statistical method for investigating the mechanism of environmental exposures on health outcomes. Previous studies have extended mediation models with a single mediator to high-dimensional mediators selection. It is often assumed that there are no confounders that influence the relations among the exposure, mediator, and outcome. This is not realistic for the observational studies. To accommodate the potential confounders, we propose a concise and efficient high-dimensional mediation analysis procedure using the propensity score for adjustment. Results from simulation studies demonstrate the proposed procedure has good performance in mediator selection and effect estimation compared with methods that ignore all confounders. Of note, as the sample size increases, the performance of variable selection and mediation effect estimation is as well as the results shown in the method which include all confounders as covariates in the mediation model. By applying this procedure to a TCGA lung cancer data set, we find that lung cancer patients who had serious smoking history have increased the risk of death
