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

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has played an important role in detecting genetic variants with pathologic and therapeutic potential. The advantages of NGS, such as high-throughput sequencing capacity and massively parallel sequencing, have a significant impact on realization of genetic profiling in clinical genetic laboratories. These changes have enabled clinicians to execute precision medicine in diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment for patients. However, to adapt targeted gene panels in diagnostic use, analytical validation and ongoing quality control should be implemented and applied with both practical guidelines and appropriate control materials. Several guidelines for NGS quality control recommend usage of control materials such as HapMap cell lines, synthetic DNA fragments, and genetically characterized cell lines; however, specifications or applications of such usage are insufficient to guideline method development. This review focuses on what factors should be considered before control material selection for NGS assay and practical methods of how they could be developed in clinical genetic laboratories. This review also provides the detailed sources of critical information related to control materials.
