BioAlign: An Accurate Global PPI Network Alignment Algorithm.
Article in Evolutionary bioinformatics online, 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
Motivation: The advancement of high-throughput PPI profiling techniques results in generating a large amount of PPI data. The alignment of the PPI networks uncovers the relationship between the species that can help understand the biological systems. The comparative study reveals the conserved biological interactions of the proteins across the species. It can also help study the biological pathways and signal networks of the cells. Although several network alignment algorithms are developed to study and compare the PPI data, the development of the aligner that aligns the PPI networks with high biological similarity and coverage is still challenging. Results: This paper presents a novel global network alignment algorithm, BioAlign, that incorporates a significant amount of biological information. Existing studies use global sequence and/or 3D-structure similarity to align the PPI networks. In contrast, BioAlign uses the local sequence similarity, predicted secondary structure motifs, and remote homology in addition to global sequence and 3D-structure similarity. The extra sources of biological information help BioAlign to align the proteins with high biological similarity. BioAlign produces significantly better results in terms of AFS and Coverage (6-32 and 7-34 with respect to MF and BP, respectively) than the existing algorithms. BioAlign aligns a much larger number of proteins that have high biological similarities as compared to the existing aligners. BioAlign helps in studying the functionally similar protein pairs across the species.
