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

backgroundCircular RNAs (circRNAs) play essential roles in cancer development and therapy resistance. Many studies have shown that circRNA is closely related to human health. The expression of circRNAs also affects the sensitivity of cells to drugs, thereby significantly affecting the efficacy of drugs. However, traditional biological experiments are time-consuming and expensive to validate drug-related circRNAs. Therefore, it is an important and urgent task to develop an effective computational method for predicting unknown circRNA-drug associations.

resultsIn this work, we propose a computational framework (GATECDA) based on graph attention auto-encoder to predict circRNA-drug sensitivity associations. In GATECDA, we leverage multiple databases, containing the sequences of host genes of circRNAs, the structure of drugs, and circRNA-drug sensitivity associations. Based on the data, GATECDA employs Graph attention auto-encoder (GATE) to extract the low-dimensional representation of circRNA/drug, effectively retaining critical information in sparse high-dimensional features and realizing the effective fusion of nodes' neighborhood information. Experimental results indicate that GATECDA achieves an average AUC of 89.18% under 10-fold cross-validation. Case studies further show the excellent performance of GATECDA.

conclusionsMany experimental results and case studies show that our proposed GATECDA method can effectively predict the circRNA-drug sensitivity associations.
