Advancing long-read nanopore genome assembly and accurate variant calling for rare disease detection.
Article in medRxiv : the preprint server for health sciences, 2024. 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
More than 50% of families with suspected rare monogenic diseases remain unsolved after whole genome analysis by short read sequencing (SRS). Long-read sequencing (LRS) could help bridge this diagnostic gap by capturing variants inaccessible to SRS, facilitating long-range mapping and phasing, and providing haplotype-resolved methylation profiling. To evaluate LRS's additional diagnostic yield, we sequenced a rare disease cohort of 98 samples, including 41 probands and some family members, using nanopore sequencing, achieving per sample ∼36x average coverage and 32 kilobase (kb) read N50 from a single flow cell. Our Napu pipeline generated assemblies, phased variants, and methylation calls. LRS covered, on average, coding exons in ∼280 genes and ∼5 known Mendelian disease genes that were not covered by SRS. In comparison to SRS, LRS detected additional rare, functionally annotated variants, including SVs and tandem repeats, and completely phased 87% of protein-coding genes. LRS detected additional
