A graph centrality-based approach for candidate gene prediction for type 1 diabetes.
Article in Immunologic research, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) or insulin-dependent diabetes is an autoimmune disease that may pose life-threatening situations to individuals. In most cases, cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) promotes killing of islets of Langerhans in the pancreas, which harbour insulin-producing beta cells. The trigger for autoimmune attack is still unclear; therefore, identifying and targeting candidate genes are imperative to hinder its deleterious effects. In the present study, we focused on identification of new candidate genes for T1DM. For our study, we exclusively selected immune-related genes as they play a crucial role in T1DM. We constructed and analysed a human immunome signalling network (directed network) to identify the new candidate genes through various graph centrality measures combining with Gene Ontology (GO). As a result, we identified 4 new candidate genes which may act as potential drug targets for T1DM. We further validated for their disease relevance through literature survey and pathway analysis and found that 3 out of 4 predicted genes mirrored their well-established roles as potential targets for T1DM.
