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

The identification of structural variants (SVs) in genomic data represents an ongoing challenge because of difficulties in reliable SV calling leading to reduced sensitivity and specificity. We prepared high-quality DNA from 9 parent-child trios, who had previously undergone short-read whole-genome sequencing (Illumina platform) as part of the Genomics England 100,000 Genomes Project. We reanalysed the genomes using both Bionano optical genome mapping (OGM; 8 probands and one trio) and Nanopore long-read sequencing (Oxford Nanopore Technologies [ONT] platform; all samples). To establish a "truth" dataset, we asked whether rare proband SV calls (
