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 growing literature suggests that gene expression can be greatly altered in disease conditions, and identifying those changes will improve the understanding of complex diseases such as cancers or diabetes. A prevailing direction in the analysis of gene expression studies the changes in gene pathways which include sets of related genes. Therefore, introducing structured exploration to differential analysis of gene expression networks may lead to meaningful discoveries. The topic of this paper is differential network analysis, which focuses on capturing the differences between two or more precision matrices. We discuss the connection between the thresholding method and the D-trace loss method on differential network analysis in the case that the precision matrices share the common connected components. Based on this connection, we further propose the cluster D-trace loss method which directly estimates the differential network and achieves model selection consistency. Simulation studies demonstrate its improved performance and computational efficiency. Finally, the usefulness of our proposed estimator is demonstrated by a real-data analysis on non-small cell lung cancer.
