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

Increasingly affordable sequencing technologies are revolutionizing the field of genomic medicine. It is now feasible to interrogate all major classes of variation in an individual across the entire genome for less than $1000 USD. While the generation of patient sequence information using these technologies has become routine, the analysis and interpretation of this data remains the greatest obstacle to widespread clinical implementation. This chapter summarizes the steps to identify, annotate, and prioritize variant information required for clinical report generation. We discuss methods to detect each variant class and describe strategies to increase the likelihood of detecting causal variant(s) in Mendelian disease. Lastly, we describe a sample workflow for synthesizing large amount of genetic information into concise clinical reports.
