ORCO: Ollivier-Ricci Curvature-Omics-an unsupervised method for analyzing robustness in biological systems.
Article in Bioinformatics (Oxford, England), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
motivationAlthough recent advanced sequencing technologies have improved the resolution of genomic and proteomic data to better characterize molecular phenotypes, efficient computational tools to analyze and interpret large-scale omic data are still needed.
resultsTo address this, we have developed a network-based bioinformatic tool called Ollivier-Ricci curvature for omics (ORCO). ORCO incorporates omics data and a network describing biological relationships between the genes or proteins and computes Ollivier-Ricci curvature (ORC) values for individual interactions. ORC is an edge-based measure that assesses network robustness. It captures functional cooperation in gene signaling using a consistent information-passing measure, which can help investigators identify therapeutic targets and key regulatory modules in biological systems. ORC has identified novel insights in multiple cancer types using genomic data and in neurodevelopmental disorders using brain imaging data. This tool is applicable to any data that can be represented as a network. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: ORCO is an open-source Python package and is publicly available on GitHub at https://github.com/aksimhal/ORC-Omics.
