Exploring quantitative traits-associated copy number deletions through reanalysis of UK10K consortium whole genome sequencing cohorts.
Article in BMC genomics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
objectivesWe performed comprehensive association analyses of common high-confidence gnomAD-reported copy number deletions (CNDs) with 60 quantitative traits from UK10K consortium WGS data.
methodsThe study made use of data generated by the UK10K Consortium. UK10K consortium WGS data consist of TwinsUK (n = 1754, middle-aged females) and ALSPAC (n = 1867, birth to adolescence) cohorts. UK10K consortium called 18,739 CNDs (hg19) with GenomeSTRiP software. After filtering out variants with minor allele frequency < 0.05 or HWE P < 1.0 × 10
resultsWe identified 23 genome-wide significant associations at 13 loci, among which 2 associations reached experiment-wide significance. We found that two common deletions in chromosome 4, located between WDR1 and ZNF518B (23.3 kb, dbVar ID:nssv15888957, 4:10211262-10,234,569 and 9.8 kb, dbVar ID:nssv15888975, 4:10392422-10,402,191), were associated with uric acid levels (P = 5.23 × 10
conclusionWe conducted a reanalysis of the UK10K Whole Genome Sequencing cohort, which led to the identification of multiple high confidence copy number deletions associated with quantitative traits. These deletions have standard dbVar IDs and replicate previous findings, as well as reveal novel loci that require further replication studies.
