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

Robust and accurate survival prediction of clinical trials using high-throughput genomics data is a fundamental challenge in pharmacogenomics. Current machine learning tools often provide limited predictive performance and model interpretation in these settings. In the present study, we extend the application of REFINED-CNN from regression tasks to making survival predictions, by mapping high-dimensional RNA sequencing data into REFINED images which are conducive to CNN modeling. We show that the REFINED-CNN survival model can be easily adapted to new tasks of a similar nature (e.g., predicting on new cancer types) using transfer learning with a low number of patients. Furthermore, the model can also be interpreted both locally and globally through risk score back propagation that quantifies each feature (e.g., gene) importance in survival prediction task for the patient or cancer type of interest.
