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

Motivation: This study aims to develop an AI-driven framework that leverages large language models (LLMs) to simulate scientific reasoning and peer review to predict efficacious combinatorial therapy when data-driven prediction is infeasible. Results: Our proposed framework achieved a significantly higher accuracy (0.74) than traditional knowledge-based prediction (0.52). An ablation study highlighted the importance of high quality few-shot examples, external knowledge integration, self-consistency, and review within the framework. The external validation with private experimental data yielded an accuracy of 0.82, further confirming the framework's ability to generate high-quality hypotheses in biological inference tasks. Our framework offers an automated knowledge-driven hypothesis generation approach when data-driven prediction is not a viable option. Availability and implementation: Our source code and data are available at https://github.com/QidiXu96/Coated-LLM.
