Outcome of IWGT workshop on transcriptomic biomarkers for genotoxicity: Key considerations for bioinformatics.
Review in Environmental and molecular mutagenesis, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
As a part of the International Workshop on Genotoxicity Testing (IWGT) in 2022, a workgroup was formed to evaluate the level of validation and regulatory acceptance of transcriptomic biomarkers that identify genotoxic substances. Several such biomarkers have been developed using various molecular techniques and computational approaches. Within the IWGT workgroup on transcriptomic biomarkers, bioinformatics was a central topic of discussion, focusing on the current approaches used to process the underlying molecular data to distill a reliable predictive signal; that is, a gene set that is indicative of genotoxicity and can then be used in later studies to predict potential DNA damaging properties for uncharacterized chemicals. While early studies used microarray data, a technological shift occurred in the past decade to incorporate modern transcriptome measuring techniques such as high-throughput transcriptomics, which in turn is based on high-throughput sequencing. Herein, we present the workgroup's review of the current bioinformatic approaches to identify genes comprising transcriptomic biomarkers. Within the context of regulatory toxicology, the reproducibility of a given analysis is critical. Therefore, the workgroup provides consensus recommendations on how to facilitate sufficient reporting of experimental parameters for the analytical procedures used in a transcriptomic biomarker study, including the recommendation to develop a biomarker-specific reporting module within the OECD Omics Reporting Framework.
