1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Targeted resequencing technologies have allowed for efficient and cost-effective detection of genomic variants in specific regions of interest. Although capture sequencing has been primarily used for investigating single nucleotide variants and indels, it has the potential to elucidate a broader spectrum of genetic variation, including copy number variants (CNVs). Various methods exist for detecting CNV in whole-genome and exome sequencing datasets. However, no algorithms have been specifically designed for contiguous target sequencing, despite its increasing importance in clinical and research applications. We have developed cnvCapSeq, a novel method for accurate and sensitive CNV discovery and genotyping in long-range targeted resequencing. cnvCapSeq was benchmarked using a simulated contiguous capture sequencing dataset comprising 21 genomic loci of various lengths. cnvCapSeq was shown to outperform the best existing exome CNV method by a wide margin both in terms of sensitivity (92.0 versus 48.3%) and specificity (99.8 versus 70.5%). We also applied cnvCapSeq to a real capture sequencing cohort comprising a contiguous 358 kb region that contains the Complement Factor H gene cluster. In this dataset, cnvCapSeq identified 41 samples with CNV, including two with duplications, with a genotyping accuracy of 99%, as ascertained by quantitative real-time PCR.
