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

We examine the coordinated behavior of thousands of genes in cell fate transitions through genome expression as an integrated dynamical system using the concepts of self-organized criticality and coherent stochastic behavior. To quantify the effects of the collective behavior of genes, we adopted the flux balance approach and developed it in a new tool termed expression flux analysis (EFA). Here we describe this tool and demonstrate how its application to specific experimental genome-wide expression data provides new insights into the dynamics of the cell-fate transitions. Particularly, we show that in cell fate change, specific stochastic perturbations can spread over the entire system to guide distinct cell fate transitions through switching cyclic flux flow in the genome engine. Utilization of EFA enables us to elucidate a unified genomic mechanism for when and how cell-fate change occurs through critical transitions.
