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

Extensive studies on tumor suppressor genes (TSGs) are helpful to understand the pathogenesis of cancer and design effective treatments. However, identifying TSGs using traditional experiments is quite difficult and time consuming. Developing computational methods to identify possible TSGs is an alternative way. In this study, we proposed two computational methods that integrated two network diffusion algorithms, including Laplacian heat diffusion (LHD) and random walk with restart (RWR), to search possible genes in the whole network. These two computational methods were LHD-based and RWR-based methods. To increase the reliability of the putative genes, three strict screening tests followed to filter genes obtained by these two algorithms. After comparing the putative genes obtained by the two methods, we designated twelve genes (e.g., MAP3K10, RND1, and OTX2) as common genes, 29 genes (e.g., RFC2 and GUCY2F) as genes that were identified only by the LHD-based method, and 128 genes (e.g., SNAI2 and FGF4) as genes that were inferred only by the RWR-based method. Some obtained genes can be confirmed as novel TSGs according to recent publications, suggesting the utility of our two proposed methods. In addition, the reported genes in this study were quite different from those reported in a previous one.
