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

Accounting for dependence among high-dimensional variables in omics data analysis is critical to obtain accurate and reliable statistical inference. Although latent, omics variables often exhibit structured correlation/co-expression patterns. However, there are few methods explicitly accounting for such structured dependence in the statistical analysis of omics data (e.g. differential expression analysis). To address this methodological gap, we propose a Coexpression network multivariate Regression (CoReg), which integrates co-expression network structure into multivariate regression analysis to precisely account for the inter-correlations (dependence) among omics variables. We show in simulations that CoReg substantially improves the accuracy of statistical inference and replicability across studies. These findings suggest that CoReg provides an alternative approach for omics data association analysis with dependence adjustment, analogous to the role of mixed-effects models in handling repeated measures in lower-dimensional settings.
