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

Multi-omic data-driven studies are at the forefront of precision medicine by characterizing complex disease signaling systems across multiple views and levels. The integration and interpretation of multi-omic data are critical for identifying disease targets and deciphering disease signaling pathways. However, it remains an open problem due to the complex signaling interactions among many proteins. Herein, we propose a multi-scale multi-hop multi-omic network flow model, M3NetFlow, to facilitate both hypothesis-guided and generic multi-omic data analysis tasks. We evaluated M3NetFlow using two independent case studies: (1) uncovering mechanisms of synergy of drug combinations (hypothesis/anchor-target guided multi-omic analysis) and (2) identifying biomarkers of Alzheimer's disease (generic multi-omic analysis). The evaluation and comparison results showed that M3NetFlow achieved the best prediction accuracy and identified a set of drug combination synergy- and disease-associated targets. The model can be directly applied to other multi-omic data-driven studies.
