Experiments
Searchable full-text extractions: founding hypothesis, core claims, experimental setups, key results and statistics — pulled out of each paper as structure. Search a cell line, an assay or an entity (e.g. HUH7) and find every paper that worked with it. This corpus stands on its own: most entries carry no reproduction assessment (yet).

Testing whether genetic variation explains correlation of quantitative measures of gene expression, and application to genetic network analysis.
PMID 18444230 · PMC2729096 · Statistics in medicine · 2008 · 8 claims · 3 setups
A statistical test (delta method and Steiger-Browne optimal linear composites) is developed to test equality of the marginal correlation and the partial correlation of two gene expression traits conditional on a set of covariates.

Gene loss rate: a probabilistic measure for the conservation of eukaryotic genes.
PMID 17158152 · PMC1802574 · Nucleic acids research · 2007 · 8 claims · 8 setups
GLR is a novel maximum-likelihood measure of gene loss rate that probabilistically weighs all possible ancestral phyletic patterns rather than relying on a single parsimonious reconstruction.

Threshold-dominated regulation hides genetic variation in gene expression networks.
PMID 18062810 · PMC2238762 · BMC systems biology · 2007 · 8 claims · 2 setups
Threshold robustness (insensitivity of a singular/regulating variable's equilibrium value to parameter perturbations, except threshold changes) increases with increasing response function steepness and is present even under Michaelis-Menten conditions, not just in the step-function limit.

Sex-biased evolutionary forces shape genomic patterns of human diversity.
PMID 18818765 · PMC2538571 · PLoS genetics · 2008 · 7 claims · 5 setups
X-linked diversity is higher than the neutral expectation (0.75) relative to autosomal diversity in all six sampled human populations
