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

Early diagnosis and treatment of glaucoma are challenging. The discovery of glaucoma biomarkers based on gene expression data could potentially provide new insights for early diagnosis, monitoring, and treatment options of glaucoma. Non-negative Matrix Factorization (NMF) has been widely used in numerous transcriptome data analyses in order to identify subtypes and biomarkers of different diseases; however, its application in glaucoma biomarker discovery has not been previously reported. Our study applied NMF to extract latent representations of RNA-seq data from BXD mouse strains and sorted the genes based on a novel gene scoring method. The enrichment ratio of the glaucoma-reference genes, extracted from multiple relevant resources, was compared using both the classical differentially expressed gene (DEG) analysis and NMF methods. The complete pipeline was validated using an independent RNA-seq dataset. Findings showed our NMF method significantly improved the enrichment detection of glaucoma genes. The application of NMF with the scoring method showed great promise in the identification of marker genes for glaucoma.
