ECHO: a nanopore sequencing-based workflow for (epi)genetic profiling of the human repeatome.
Article in Bioinformatics (Oxford, England), 2026. 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
summaryThe human genome is dominated by repetitive DNA, whose genetic and epigenetic variation plays a key role in gene regulation, genome stability, and disease. Recent advances in long-read sequencing now enable large-scale, haplotype-resolved, and DNA methylation-informative analysis of the human genome, including on previously inaccessible complex and repetitive regions. However, the comprehensive, simultaneous characterisation of the "human repeatome" remains challenging, largely due to the lack of comprehensive tools integrated in a single pipeline that can capture the full spectrum of variation across diverse types of DNA repeats. Here, we present ECHO, a user-friendly, Snakemake-based pipeline for the "(Epi)genomic Characterisation of Human Repetitive Elements using Oxford Nanopore Sequencing." ECHO provides a reproducible and scalable framework for end-to-end analysis of whole-genome nanopore sequencing data, enabling integrative but also tailored (epi)genetic analyses of the human repeatome. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: ECHO is freely available at Github: https://github.com/leenput/ECHO-pipeline, with the archived version at Zenodo: https://zenodo.org/records/19068468.
