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

Deep learning models (DLMs) have gained importance in predicting, detecting, translating, and classifying a diversity of inputs. In bioinformatics, DLMs have been used to predict protein structures, transcription factor-binding sites, and promoters. In this work, we propose a hybrid model to identify transcription factors (TFs) among prokaryotic and eukaryotic protein sequences, named Deep Regulation (DeepReg) model. Two architectures were used in the DL model: a convolutional neural network (CNN), and a bidirectional long-short-term memory (BiLSTM). DeepReg reached a precision of 0.99, a recall of 0.97, and an F1-score of 0.98. The quality of our predictions, the bias-variance trade-off approach, and the characterization of new TF predictions were evaluated and compared against those produced by DeepTFactor, as well as against experimental data from three model organisms. Predictions based on our DLM tended to exhibit less variance and bias than those from DeepTFactor, thus increasing reliability and decreasing overfitting.
