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

Haplotype blocks in the genome are informative of evolutionary processes and they play a pivotal role in describing the genomic variability across human populations and susceptibility/resistance to diseases. Several software have been developed for haplotype block detection, but they do not distinguish between the impacts of major and minor single nucleotides polymorphism (SNP) alleles. In this study, we present a powerful haploblock detection software, specifically designed for identifying haploblocks associated with SNP minor allele haploblocks (MiA-haploblocks). These haploblocks are particularly important as they can significantly influence phenotypic traits, offering a novel approach for studying genetic associations and complex traits. HaploExplore operates on VCF files containing phased data, exhibiting rapid processing times, and generating user-friendly outputs. Results converge when analyzing populations of 100 individuals or more. A comparative analysis of HaploExplore against other haploblock detection software revealed its superiority in terms of either simplicity, flexibility, or speed, with the unique capability to target minor alleles. HaploExplore will be very useful for evolutionary genomics and for GWAS analysis in human diseases, given that the effects of genetic associations may accumulate within a specific haploblock.
