Estimating microhaplotype allele frequencies from low-coverage or pooled sequencing data.
Article in BMC 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
backgroundMicrohaplotypes have the potential to be more cost-effective than SNPs for applications that require genetic panels of highly variable loci. However, development of microhaplotype panels is hindered by a lack of methods for estimating microhaplotype allele frequency from low-coverage whole genome sequencing or pooled sequencing (pool-seq) data.
resultsWe developed new methods for estimating microhaplotype allele frequency from low-coverage whole genome sequence and pool-seq data. We validated these methods using datasets from three non-model organisms. These methods allowed estimation of allele frequency and expected heterozygosity at depths routinely achieved from pooled sequencing.
conclusionsThese new methods will allow microhaplotype panels to be designed using low-coverage WGS and pool-seq data to discover and evaluate candidate loci. The python script implementing the two methods and documentation are available at https://www.github.com/delomast/mhFromLowDepSeq .
