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

summaryClonal hematopoiesis (CH) is a molecular biomarker associated with various adverse outcomes in both healthy individuals and those with underlying conditions, including cancer. Detecting CH usually involves genomic sequencing of individual blood samples followed by robust bioinformatics data filtering. We report an R package, qcCHIP, a bioinformatics pipeline that implements permutation-based parameter optimization to guide quality control filtering and cohort-specific CH identification. We benchmark qcCHIP under various data settings, including different sequencing depths, ranges of cohort sizes, with and without normal-tumor paired samples, and across different cancer types. We show that qcCHIP allows users to customize analysis needs to generate CH calls based on cohort-specific data characteristics. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: qcCHIP R package is freely accessible at GitHub https://github.com/tenglab/qcCHIP and DOI: 10.5281/zenodo.16421861.
