plmmr: an R package to fit penalized linear mixed models for genome-wide association data with complex correlation structure.
Article in Briefings in bioinformatics, 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
Correlation among the observations in high-dimensional regression modeling can be a major source of confounding. We present a new open-source package, plmmr, to implement penalized linear mixed models in R. This R package estimates correlation among observations in high-dimensional data and uses those estimates to improve prediction with the best linear unbiased predictor. The package uses memory mapping so that genome-scale data can be analyzed on ordinary machines even if the size of data exceeds random-access memory. We present here the methods, workflow, and file-backing approach upon which plmmr is built, and we demonstrate its computational capabilities with two examples from real genome-wide association studies data.
