On combining family- and population-based sequencing data.

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
Several statistical group-based approaches have been proposed to detect effects of variation within a gene for each of the population- and family-based designs. However, unified tests to combine gene-phenotype associations obtained from these 2 study designs are not yet well established. In this study, we investigated the efficient combination of population-based and family-based sequencing data to evaluate best practices using the Genetic Analysis Workshop 19 (GAW19) data set. Because one design employed whole genome sequencing and the other whole exome sequencing, we examined variants overlapping both data sets. We used the family-based sequence kernel association test (famSKAT) to analyze the family- and population-based data sets separately as well as with a combined data set. These were compared against meta-analysis. Using the combined data, we showed that famSKAT has high power to detect associations between diastolic and/or systolic blood pressures and the genes that have causal variants with large effect sizes, such as
