Mechanisms underlying disease-causing variants in promoters and enhancers.
Review in Nature genetics, 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
The study of human monogenic disorders has been a powerful tool for generating a deep understanding of protein function/dysfunction and for uncovering underlying biological mechanisms. Here we explore the insights that an expanding catalog of noncoding monogenic disease variants can provide into the functions of the noncoding genome. We focus on small genetic alterations (one to a few tens of base pairs) in cis-regulatory elements-promoters, enhancers and silencers-and their potential mechanisms of action, such as loss or gain of function. We discuss the challenges in determining pathogenicity for variants in the noncoding genome, discuss why there might be so few concrete examples and highlight the opportunities for advancing this area of human genetics by using experimental and machine-learning tools.
