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

Motivation: The bulk of space taken up by NGS sequencing CRAM files consists of per-base quality values. Most of these are unnecessary for variant calling, offering an opportunity for space saving. Results: On the Syndip test set, a 17 fold reduction in the quality storage portion of a CRAM file can be achieved while maintaining variant calling accuracy. The size reduction of an entire CRAM file varied from 2.2 to 7.4 fold, depending on the non-quality content of the original file (see Supplementary Material S6 for details). Availability and implementation: Crumble is OpenSource and can be obtained from https://github.com/jkbonfield/crumble. Supplementary information: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
