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

Gene regulatory network (GRN) inference from gene expression data is a significant approach to understanding aspects of the biological system. Compared with generalized correlation-based methods, causality-inspired ones seem more rational to infer regulatory relationships. We propose GRINCD, a novel GRN inference framework empowered by graph representation learning and causal asymmetric learning, considering both linear and non-linear regulatory relationships. First, high-quality representation of each gene is generated using graph neural network. Then, we apply the additive noise model to predict the causal regulation of each regulator-target pair. Additionally, we design two channels and finally assemble them for robust prediction. Through comprehensive comparisons of our framework with state-of-the-art methods based on different principles on numerous datasets of diverse types and scales, the experimental results show that our framework achieves superior or comparable performance under various evaluation metrics. Our work provides a new clue for constructing GRNs, and our proposed framework GRINCD also shows potential in identifying key factors affecting cancer development.
