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

summaryWhole-exome and targeted sequencing are widely utilized both in translational cancer genomics and in the setting of precision medicine. The benchmarking of computational methods and tools that are in continuous development is fundamental for the correct interpretation of somatic genomic profiling results. To this aim we developed synggen, a tool for the fast generation of large-scale realistic and heterogeneous cancer whole-exome and targeted sequencing synthetic datasets, which enables the incorporation of phased germline single nucleotide polymorphisms and complex allele-specific somatic genomic events. Synggen performances and effectiveness in generating synthetic cancer data are shown across different scenarios and considering different platforms with distinct characteristics. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: synggen is freely available at https://bitbucket.org/CibioBCG/synggen/. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
