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

A multiscale method proposed elsewhere for reconstructing plausible 3D configurations of the chromatin in cell nuclei is recalled, based on the integration of contact data from Hi-C experiments and additional information coming from ChIP-seq, RNA-seq and ChIA-PET experiments. Provided that the additional data come from independent experiments, this kind of approach is supposed to leverage them to complement possibly noisy, biased or missing Hi-C records. When the different data sources are mutually concurrent, the resulting solutions are corroborated; otherwise, their validity would be weakened. Here, a problem of reliability arises, entailing an appropriate choice of the relative weights to be assigned to the different informational contributions. A series of experiments is presented that help to quantify the advantages and the limitations offered by this strategy. Whereas the advantages in accuracy are not always significant, the case of missing Hi-C data demonstrates the effectiveness of additional information in reconstructing the highly packed segments of the structure.
