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

backgroundAlthough gene expression data play significant roles in biological and medical studies, their applications are hampered due to the difficulty and high expenses of gathering them through biological experiments. It is an urgent problem to generate high quality gene expression data with computational methods. WGAN-GP, a generative adversarial network-based method, has been successfully applied in augmenting gene expression data. However, mode collapse or over-fitting may take place for small training samples due to just one discriminator is adopted in the method.

resultsIn this study, an improved data augmentation approach MDWGAN-GP, a generative adversarial network model with multiple discriminators, is proposed. In addition, a novel method is devised for enriching training samples based on linear graph convolutional network. Extensive experiments were implemented on real biological data.

conclusionsThe experimental results have demonstrated that compared with other state-of-the-art methods, the MDWGAN-GP method can produce higher quality generated gene expression data in most cases.
