KBeagle: An Adaptive Strategy and Tool for Improving Imputation Accuracy and Computation Time.
Article in International journal of molecular sciences, 2025. 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
Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) technology has made significant progress in obtaining the genomic information of organisms and is now the primary way to uncover genetic variation. However, due to the complexity of the genome and technical limitations, large genome segments remain ungenotyped. Imputation is a useful strategy for predicting missing genotypes. The accuracy and computing speed of imputation software are important criteria that should inform future developments in genomic research. In this study, the K-Means algorithm and multithreading were used to cluster reference individuals to reduce the number and improve the length of haplotypes in the subpopulation. We named this strategy "KBeagle". In the comparison test, we determined that the KBeagle-imputed dataset (KID) can identify more single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) loci associated with the specified traits compared to the Beagle-imputed dataset (BID), while also achieving much lower false discovery rates (FDRs) and Type I error rates under the same power of detection of association signals. We envision that the main application of KBeagle will focus on livestock sequencing studies under a strong genetic structure. In summary, we have generated an accurate and efficient imputation method, improving the imputation matching rate and calculation time.
