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

Exploring the dynamic variations of viral genomes utilizing with a phylogenetic analysis is vital to control the pandemic and stop its waves. Genetic network can be applied to depict the complicated evolution relationships of viral genomes. However, current phylogenetic methods cannot handle the cases with deletions effectively. Therefore, the k-mer natural vector is employed to characterize the compositions and distribution features of k-mers occurring in a viral genome, and construct a one-to-one relationship between a viral genome and its k-mer natural vector. Utilizing the k-mer natural vector, we proposed a novel genetic network to investigate the variations of viral genomes in transmission among humans. With the assistance of genetic network, we identified the super-spreaders that were responsible for the pandemic outbreaks all over the world and chose the parental strains to evaluate the effectiveness of diagnostics, therapeutics, and vaccines. The obtaining results fully demonstrated that our genetic network can truly describe the relationships of viral genomes, effectively simulate virus spread tendency, and trace the transmission routes precisely. In addition, this work indicated that the k-mer natural vector has the ability to capture established hotspots of diversities existing in the viral genomes and understand how genomic contents change over time.
