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

Nanopore adaptive sequencing enables real-time target enrichment, yet current deep-learning methods require costly, sample-specific experimental training data. To address this, we developed GANBase, a genome-guided generative adversarial learning framework, which is trained exclusively on reference sequences and incorporates a Monte Carlo Tree Search-based Rollout strategy for model training. GANBase demonstrates robust performance in target enrichment and host depletion across diverse scenarios. In live adaptive sequencing experiments, it remains effective despite significant pore loss or flow cell version updates, providing a data-independent solution that significantly expands the utility of real-time targeted sequencing.
