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).

Is replication the gold standard for validating genome-wide association findings?
PMID 19112512 · PMC2605260 · PloS one · 2008 · 8 claims · 4 setups
The probability of replicating a specific GWA-identified variant decreases as the number of independent GWA/replication studies increases, when individual study power is less than 100%.

What can genome-wide association studies tell us about the genetics of common disease?
PMID 18454206 · PMC2323402 · PLoS genetics · 2008 · 8 claims · 4 setups
Apparent patterns of common, low-effect disease-associated alleles largely reflect statistical power of studies rather than the true underlying distribution of disease variants

Incorporation of genetic model parameters for cost-effective designs of genetic association studies using DNA pooling.
PMID 17634103 · PMC1947971 · BMC genomics · 2007 · 8 claims · 4 setups
A closed-form approximation to the F-test non-centrality parameter (NCP) incorporating genetic model parameters (disease allele frequency, marker allele frequency, prevalence, genotype relative risk, sample size, genetic model, number of pools/replicates, machine variability) can be used to compute power for DNA pooling association studies

Calibrating the performance of SNP arrays for whole-genome association studies.
PMID 18584036 · PMC2432039 · PLoS genetics · 2008 · 8 claims · 7 setups
Previous SNP array genetic coverage estimates are inflated due to SNP overfitting and sample overfitting, since they were evaluated on the same HapMap SNPs/individuals used to design the arrays.

Gbdmr: identifying differentially methylated CpG regions in the human genome via generalized beta regressions.
PMID 38443825 · PMC10916021 · BMC bioinformatics · 2024 · 8 claims · 4 setups
gbdmr models DNA methylation levels of CpG sites using a generalized beta distribution instead of assuming normality as in linear-regression-based methods

Hit selection with false discovery rate control in genome-scale RNAi screens.
PMID 18628291 · PMC2504311 · Nucleic acids research · 2008 · 8 claims · 3 setups
A Bayesian FDR-controlling methodology for hit selection in genome-scale RNAi HTS is proposed, using a direct posterior probability approach analogous to Newton et al.

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.

Meta-analysis of inter-species liver co-expression networks elucidates traits associated with common human diseases.
PMID 20019805 · PMC2787626 · PLoS computational biology · 2009 · 8 claims · 8 setups
A novel semi-parametric meta-analysis method (based on a gene-centric Glass's d effect size) outperforms existing parametric and non-parametric meta-analysis methods at identifying functionally coherent gene pairs across species.

Revealing an unexpectedly low electron injection threshold via reinforced shock acceleration.
PMID 39805850 · PMC11730962 · Nature communications · 2025 · 8 claims · 4 setups
A reinforced shock acceleration model combining foreshock transients, wave-particle interactions, and variable stellar wind conditions operating across multiple scales enables electrons to consistently reach relativistic energies

Calculating expected DNA remnants from ancient founding events in human population genetics.
PMID 18928554 · PMC2588638 · BMC genetics · 2008 · 8 claims · 3 setups

Adaptation to different human populations by HIV-1 revealed by codon-based analyses.
PMID 16789820 · PMC1480537 · PLoS computational biology · 2006 · 8 claims · 8 setups
Developed two fixed effects maximum likelihood methods: one to detect selection that persists in a population (internal vs. terminal branches) and one to detect differential selection on codons between two populations.
