IMI-driver: Integrating multi-level gene networks and multi-omics for cancer driver gene identification.
Article in PLoS computational biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
The identification of cancer driver genes is crucial for early detection, effective therapy, and precision medicine of cancer. Cancer is caused by the dysregulation of several genes at various levels of regulation. However, current techniques only capture a limited amount of regulatory information, which may hinder their efficacy. In this study, we present IMI-driver, a model that integrates multi-omics data into eight biological networks and applies Multi-view Collaborative Network Embedding to embed the gene regulation information from the biological networks into a low-dimensional vector space to identify cancer drivers. We apply IMI-driver to 29 cancer types from The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) and compare its performance with nine other methods on nine benchmark datasets. IMI-driver outperforms the other methods, demonstrating that multi-level network integration enhances prediction accuracy. We also perform a pan-cancer analysis using the genes identified by IMI-driver, which confirms almost all our selected candidate genes as known or potential drivers. Case studies of the new positive genes suggest their roles in cancer development and progression.
