Blood group typing from whole-genome sequencing data.
Article in PloS one, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Many questions can be explored thanks to whole-genome data. The aim of this study was to overcome their main limits, software availability and database accuracy, and estimate the feasibility of red blood cell (RBC) antigen typing from whole-genome sequencing (WGS) data. We analyzed whole-genome data from 79 individuals for HLA-DRB1 and 9 RBC antigens. Whole-genome sequencing data was analyzed with software allowing phasing of variable positions to define alleles or haplotypes and validated for HLA typing from next-generation sequencing data. A dedicated database was set up with 1648 variable positions analyzed in KEL (KEL), ACKR1 (FY), SLC14A1 (JK), ACHE (YT), ART4 (DO), AQP1 (CO), CD44 (IN), SLC4A1 (DI) and ICAM4 (LW). Whole-genome sequencing typing was compared to that previously obtained by amplicon-based monoallelic sequencing and by SNaPshot analysis. Whole-genome sequencing data were also explored for other alleles. Our results showed 93% of concordance for blood group polymorphisms and 91% for HLA-DRB1. Incorrect typing and unresolved results confirm that WGS should be considered reliable with read depths strictly above 15x. Our results supported that RBC antigen typing from WGS is feasible but requires improvements in read depth for SNV polymorphisms typing accuracy. We also showed the potential for WGS in screening donors with rare blood antigens, such as weak JK alleles. The development of WGS analysis in immunogenetics laboratories would offer personalized care in the management of RBC disorders.
