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

The integration of transcriptional data with other layers of information, such as the post-transcriptional regulation mediated by microRNAs, can be crucial to identify the driver genes and the subtypes of complex and heterogeneous diseases such as cancer. This paper presents an approach based on topic modeling to accomplish this integration task. More specifically, we show how an algorithm based on a hierarchical version of stochastic block modeling can be naturally extended to integrate any combination of 'omics data. We test this approach on breast cancer samples from the TCGA database, integrating data on messenger RNA, microRNAs, and copy number variations. We show that the inclusion of the microRNA layer significantly improves the accuracy of subtype classification. Moreover, some of the hidden structures or "topics" that the algorithm extracts actually correspond to genes and microRNAs involved in breast cancer development and are associated to the survival probability.
