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

motivationDrug repositioning is an effective strategy to identify new indications for existing drugs, providing the quickest possible transition from bench to bedside. With the rapid development of deep learning, graph convolutional networks (GCNs) have been widely adopted for drug repositioning tasks. However, prior GCNs based methods exist limitations in deeply integrating node features and topological structures, which may hinder the capability of GCNs.

resultsIn this study, we propose an adaptive GCNs approach, termed AdaDR, for drug repositioning by deeply integrating node features and topological structures. Distinct from conventional graph convolution networks, AdaDR models interactive information between them with adaptive graph convolution operation, which enhances the expression of model. Concretely, AdaDR simultaneously extracts embeddings from node features and topological structures and then uses the attention mechanism to learn adaptive importance weights of the embeddings. Experimental results show that AdaDR achieves better performance than multiple baselines for drug repositioning. Moreover, in the case study, exploratory analyses are offered for finding novel drug-disease associations. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: The soure code of AdaDR is available at: https://github.com/xinliangSun/AdaDR.
