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).

Gene-environment interaction and obesity.
PMID 19019037 · PMC3683966 · Nutrition reviews · 2008 · 8 claims · 8 setups
Obesity susceptibility is largely genetically determined but requires environmental exposure (excess energy intake, low fiber, physical inactivity) to manifest phenotypically.

The limits of reductionism in medicine: could systems biology offer an alternative?
PMID 16681415 · PMC1459480 · PLoS medicine · 2006 · 8 claims · 3 setups
Reductionist medical science (focus on singular causal factors, homeostasis-as-normal-range, one-risk-factor epidemiology, additive treatment of comorbidities) has inherent limitations for explaining complex disease behavior

Cardiovascular genomics, personalized medicine, and the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute: part I: the beginning of an era.
PMID 20031542 · PMC3097376 · Circulation. Cardiovascular genetics · 2008 · 7 claims · 8 setups
Rare Mendelian mutations (e.g., in sarcomere genes, ion channels, FBN1, LMNA) cause specific rare cardiovascular conditions (hypertrophic/dilated cardiomyopathy, long-QT syndrome, thoracic aortic aneurysm, progeria) but explain little of common CVD risk.

Assignment of Streptococcus agalactiae isolates to clonal complexes using a small set of single nucleotide polymorphisms.
PMID 18710585 · PMC2533671 · BMC microbiology · 2008 · 7 claims · 6 setups
A four-SNP set (glnA36, glnA429, glcK180, adhP111) identified via the Not-N algorithm plus empirical testing divides GBS into 10 groups concordant with eBURST-defined population structure.

Chromosomal phenotypes and submicroscopic abnormalities.
PMID 15601540 · PMC3525070 · Human genomics · 2004 · 8 claims · 8 setups
Microdeletion syndromes are flanked by region-specific low-copy repeats (LCRs), and non-allelic homologous recombination (NAHR) between these LCRs, via interchromosomal or intrachromosomal mechanisms, causes the deletions.

Genotype-phenotype associations: modulation by diet and obesity.
PMID 19037211 · PMC2771769 · Obesity (Silver Spring, Md.) · 2008 · 8 claims · 7 setups
Obesity modulates the association between APOE genotype and fasting insulin/glucose levels in men, with obese APOE4 carriers showing higher insulin and glucose than other obese genotype groups.
