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

Increasing evidence shows that genetic interaction across the entire genome may explain a non-trivial fraction of genetic diseases. Digenic interaction is the simplest manifestation of genetic interaction among genes. However, systematic exploration of digenic interactive effects on the whole genome is often discouraged by the high dimension burden. Thus, numerous digenic interactions are yet to be identified for many diseases. Here, we propose a Digenic Interaction Effect Predictor (DIEP), an accurate machine-learning approach to identify the genome-wide pathogenic coding gene pairs with digenic interaction effects. This approach achieved high accuracy and sensitivity in independent testing datasets, outperforming another gene-level digenic predictor (DiGePred). DIEP was also able to discriminate digenic interaction effect from bi-locus effects dual molecular diagnosis (pseudo-digenic). Using DIEP, we provided a valuable resource of genome-wide digenic interactions and demonstrated the enrichment of the digenic interaction effect in Mendelian and Oligogenic diseases. Therefore, DIEP will play a useful role in facilitating the genomic mapping of interactive causal genes for human diseases.
