GCPBayes pipeline: a tool for exploring pleiotropy at the gene level.
Article in NAR genomics and bioinformatics, 2023. 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
Cross-phenotype association using gene-set analysis can help to detect pleiotropic genes and inform about common mechanisms between diseases. Although there are an increasing number of statistical methods for exploring pleiotropy, there is a lack of proper pipelines to apply gene-set analysis in this context and using genome-scale data in a reasonable running time. We designed a user-friendly pipeline to perform cross-phenotype gene-set analysis between two traits using GCPBayes, a method developed by our team. All analyses could be performed automatically by calling for different scripts in a simple way (using a Shiny app, Bash or R script). A Shiny application was also developed to create different plots to visualize outputs from GCPBayes. Finally, a comprehensive and step-by-step tutorial on how to use the pipeline is provided in our group's GitHub page. We illustrated the application on publicly available GWAS (genome-wide association studies) summary statistics data to identify breast cancer and ovarian cancer susceptibility genes. We have shown that the GCPBayes pipeline could extract pleiotropic genes previously mentioned in the literature, while it also provided new pleiotropic genes and regions that are worthwhile for further investigation. We have also provided some recommendations about parameter selection for decreasing computational time of GCPBayes on genome-scale data.
