ORE identifies extreme expression effects enriched for rare variants.
Article in Bioinformatics (Oxford, England), 2019. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
motivationNon-coding rare variants (RVs) may contribute to Mendelian disorders but have been challenging to study due to small sample sizes, genetic heterogeneity and uncertainty about relevant non-coding features. Previous studies identified RVs associated with expression outliers, but varying outlier definitions were employed and no comprehensive open-source software was developed.
resultsWe developed Outlier-RV Enrichment (ORE) to identify biologically-meaningful non-coding RVs. We implemented ORE combining whole-genome sequencing and cardiac RNAseq from congenital heart defect patients from the Pediatric Cardiac Genomics Consortium and deceased adults from Genotype-Tissue Expression. Use of rank-based outliers maximized sensitivity while a most extreme outlier approach maximized specificity. Rarer variants had stronger associations, suggesting they are under negative selective pressure and providing a basis for investigating their contribution to Mendelian disorders.
