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

Understanding transcriptional responses to chemical perturbations is central to drug discovery, but exhaustive experimental screening of disease-compound combinations is unfeasible. To overcome this limitation, here we introduce PRnet, a perturbation-conditioned deep generative model that predicts transcriptional responses to novel chemical perturbations that have never experimentally perturbed at bulk and single-cell levels. Evaluations indicate that PRnet outperforms alternative methods in predicting responses across novel compounds, pathways, and cell lines. PRnet enables gene-level response interpretation and in-silico drug screening for diseases based on gene signatures. PRnet further identifies and experimentally validates novel compound candidates against small cell lung cancer and colorectal cancer. Lastly, PRnet generates a large-scale integration atlas of perturbation profiles, covering 88 cell lines, 52 tissues, and various compound libraries. PRnet provides a robust and scalable candidate recommendation workflow and successfully recommends drug candidates for 233 diseases. Overall, PRnet is an effective and valuable tool for gene-based therapeutics screening.
