Evidence Graph

Follow one claim from observation to the missing experiment.

The graph shows why NMD-VCell can recommend a study without claiming that a gene will improve DMD.

Worked example

ZNF133 evidence path

Each step uses one of three ordinary-language states: observed, limited context or not yet tested.

1
Observed

ZNF133 was silenced in HepG2 cells

A measured CRISPRi gene-expression response is available in the released same-context dataset.

Open the observed response →
2
Limited context

ZNF133 was checked in a human-myoblast screen

It was represented in the screen but did not meet that screen’s hit threshold. This is context evidence, not DMD replication.

3
Evidence disagrees

DMD datasets do not fully agree on direction

The disagreement is retained as uncertainty instead of being collapsed into a therapeutic claim.

Inspect the DMD evidence →
4
Not yet tested

No independent ZNF133 perturbation exists in DMD muscle

This is the decision-blocking gap. The absence of an experiment is not a negative result.

5
Next experiment

Test matched DMD and control muscle cells

Use two independent reagents, biological repeats and one prespecified functional outcome.

What this means: the platform does not turn several indirect clues into a confidence score. It preserves the chain, exposes the missing link and sends the user to the experiment that would resolve it.
