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).

Size matters: just how big is BIG?: Quantifying realistic sample size requirements for human genome epidemiology.
PMID 18676414 · PMC2639365 · International journal of epidemiology · 2009 · 7 claims · 2 setups
Conventional power calculations for case-control studies disregard analytic complexity (e.g. clinical assessment errors, unmeasured aetiological determinants) and can seriously underestimate true sample size requirements

Are the so-called low penetrance breast cancer genes, ATM, BRIP1, PALB2 and CHEK2, high risk for women with strong family histories?
PMID 18557994 · PMC2481495 · Breast cancer research : BCR · 2008 · 8 claims · 8 setups
Mutation frequencies in ATM, BRIP1, PALB2 and CHEK2 are many times higher in women with strong breast cancer family history (familial cases) than in population controls.
