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

Mutational signatures are characteristic patterns of mutations caused by endogenous or exogenous mutational processes. These signatures can be discovered by analyzing mutations in large sets of samples-usually somatic mutations in tumor samples. Most programs for discovering mutational signatures are based on non-negative matrix factorization (NMF). Alternatively, signatures can be discovered using hierarchical Dirichlet process (HDP) mixture models, an approach that has been less explored. These models assign mutations to clusters and view each cluster as being generated from the signature of a particular mutational process. Here, we describe mSigHdp, an improved approach to using HDP mixture models to discover mutational signatures. We benchmarked mSigHdp and state-of-the-art NMF-based approaches on four realistic synthetic data sets. These data sets encompassed 18 cancer types. In total, they contained 3.5 × 10
