Driver gene detection through Bayesian network integration of mutation and expression profiles.
Article in Bioinformatics (Oxford, England), 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
motivationThe identification of mutated driver genes and the corresponding pathways is one of the primary goals in understanding tumorigenesis at the patient level. Integration of multi-dimensional genomic data from existing repositories, e.g., The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA), offers an effective way to tackle this issue. In this study, we aimed to leverage the complementary genomic information of individuals and create an integrative framework to identify cancer-related driver genes. Specifically, based on pinpointed differentially expressed genes, variants in somatic mutations and a gene interaction network, we proposed an unsupervised Bayesian network integration (BNI) method to detect driver genes and estimate the disease propagation at the patient and/or cohort levels. This new method first captures inherent structural information to construct a functional gene mutation network and then extracts the driver genes and their controlled downstream modules using the minimum cover subset method.
resultsUsing other credible sources (e.g. Cancer Gene Census and Network of Cancer Genes), we validated the driver genes predicted by the BNI method in three TCGA pan-cancer cohorts. The proposed method provides an effective approach to address tumor heterogeneity faced by personalized medicine. The pinpointed drivers warrant further wet laboratory validation.
