A Survey of Autoencoder Algorithms to Pave the Diagnosis of Rare Diseases.
Review in International journal of molecular sciences, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 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
Rare diseases (RDs) concern a broad range of disorders and can result from various origins. For a long time, the scientific community was unaware of RDs. Impressive progress has already been made for certain RDs; however, due to the lack of sufficient knowledge, many patients are not diagnosed. Nowadays, the advances in high-throughput sequencing technologies such as whole genome sequencing, single-cell and others, have boosted the understanding of RDs. To extract biological meaning using the data generated by these methods, different analysis techniques have been proposed, including machine learning algorithms. These methods have recently proven to be valuable in the medical field. Among such approaches, unsupervised learning methods via neural networks including autoencoders (AEs) or variational autoencoders (VAEs) have shown promising performances with applications on various type of data and in different contexts, from cancer to healthy patient tissues. In this review, we discuss how AEs and VAEs have been used in biomedical settings. Specifically, we discuss their current applications and the improvements achieved in diagnostic and survival of patients. We focus on the applications in the field of RDs, and we discuss how the employment of AEs and VAEs would enhance RD understanding and diagnosis.
