Identification and Characterization of Chromothripsis by Optical Genome Mapping.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 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
Optical genome mapping (OGM) is a robust method for identifying and characterizing chromothripsis. While conventional short-read sequencing techniques encounter challenges in detecting chromothripsis due to limitations in read length and difficulties in analyzing repetitive sequences, OGM leverages the visualization of long DNA molecules to overcome these obstacles. OGM involves a multi-step process, starting with the extraction of ultra-high molecular weight DNA, followed by fluorescent labeling and imaging of the stretched molecules in nanochannels. A specific computational pipeline analyzes the resulting data to detect and categorize structural variations and copy number variations, offering a comprehensive, high-resolution view of genetic alterations across the genome. Despite certain limitations, such as the requirement for specialized DNA extraction and the inability to detect specific types of variations, OGM stands out as a powerful tool for chromothripsis detection and characterization, complementing existing methods and providing valuable insights into genome structure and variations.
