Rethinking GWAS: how lessons from genetic screens and artificial intelligence could reveal biological mechanisms.
Article in Bioinformatics (Oxford, England), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
motivationModern single-cell omics data are key to unraveling the complex mechanisms underlying risk for complex diseases revealed by genome-wide association studies (GWAS). Phenotypic screens in model organisms have several important parallels to GWAS which the author explores in this essay.
resultsThe author provides the historical context of such screens, comparing and contrasting similarities to association studies, and how these screens in model organisms can teach us what to look for. Then the author considers how the results of GWAS might be exhaustively interrogated to interpret the biological mechanisms underpinning disease processes. Finally, the author proposes a general framework for tackling this problem computationally, and explore the data, mechanisms, and technology (both existing and yet to be invented) that are necessary to complete the task.
