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

The HapMap (haplotype map) projects have produced valuable genetic resources in life science research communities, allowing researchers to investigate sequence variations and conduct genome-wide association study (GWAS) analyses. A typical HapMap project may require sequencing hundreds, even thousands, of individual lines or accessions within a species. Due to limitations in current sequencing technology, the genotype values for some accessions cannot be clearly called. Additionally, allelic heterozygosity can be very high in some lines, causing genetic and sometimes phenotypic segregation in their descendants. Genetic and phenotypic segregation degrades the original accession's specificity and makes it difficult to distinguish one accession from another. Therefore, it is vitally important to determine and validate HapMap accessions before one conducts a GWAS analysis. However, to the best of our knowledge, there are no prior methodologies or tools that can readily distinguish or validate multiple accessions in a HapMap population. We devised a bioinformatics approach to distinguish multiple HapMap accessions using only a minimum number of genetic markers. First, we assign each candidate marker with a distinguishing score (DS), which measures its capability in distinguishing accessions. The DS score prioritizes those markers with higher percentages of homozygous genotypes (allele combinations), as they can be stably passed on to offspring. Next, we apply the "set-partitioning" concept to select optimal markers by recursively partitioning accession sets. Subsequently, we build a hierarchical decision tree in which a specific path represents the selected markers and the homogenous genotypes that can be used to distinguish one accession from others in the HapMap population. Based on these algorithms, we developed a web tool named MAD-HiDTree (Multiple Accession Distinguishment-Hierarchical Decision Tree), designed to analyze a user-input genotype matrix and construct a hierarchical decision tree.
