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

Low-pass genome sequencing is cost-effective and enables analysis of large cohorts. However, it introduces biases by reducing heterozygous genotypes and low-frequency alleles, impacting subsequent analyses such as demographic history inference. We developed a probabilistic model of low-pass biases from the Genome Analysis Toolkit (GATK) multi-sample calling pipeline, and we implemented it in the population genomic inference software dadi. We evaluated the model using simulated low-pass datasets and found that it alleviated low-pass biases in inferred demographic parameters. We further validated the model by downsampling 1000 Genomes Project data, demonstrating its effectiveness on real data. Our model is widely applicable and substantially improves model-based inferences from low-pass population genomic data.
