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

The identification of miRNA-disease associations is crucial for early disease prevention and treatment. However, it is still a computational challenge to accurately predict such associations due to improper information encoding. Previous methods characterize miRNA-disease associations only from single levels, causing the loss of multi-level association information. In this study, we propose TriFusion, a powerful and interpretable deep learning framework for miRNA-disease association prediction. It develops a tri-channel architecture to encode the association features of miRNAs and diseases from different levels and designs a feature fusion encoder to smoothly fuse these features. After training and testing, TriFusion outperforms other leading methods and offers strong interpretability through its learned representations. Furthermore, TriFusion is applied to three high-risk sexually associated cancers (ovarian, breast, and prostate cancers) and exhibits remarkable ability in the identification of miRNAs associated with the three diseases.
