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

Loss of chromosome Y (LOY) is the most common aneuploidy in aging men and is increasingly recognized as a marker of aging and genomic instability. Because LOY occurs in mosaic form, its degree reflects the fraction of cells lacking the Y chromosome. Existing SNP-array- and sequencing-based methods rely largely on single genomic features and indirect transformations to estimate this fraction. We developed BaySeq-Y, a Bayesian method that directly estimates LOY mosaicism from sequencing data using VCF files with read depth (DP) and allelic depth (AD). Within a rigorous Bayesian framework, BaySeq-Y integrates complementary LOY-associated genomic features, including decreased read depth and allelic imbalance, and can additionally leverage haplotype phasing to improve precision.
