https://www.selleckchem.com/mTOR.html Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of parent-offspring trios has become widely used to identify causal copy number variations (CNVs) in rare and complex diseases. Existing CNV detection approaches usually do not make effective use of Mendelian inheritance in parent-offspring trios and yield low accuracy. In this study, we propose a novel integrated approach, TrioCNV2, for jointly detecting CNVs from WGS data of the parent-offspring trio. TrioCNV2 first makes use of the read depth and discordant read pairs to infer approximate locations of CNVs and then employs the split read and local de novo assembly approaches to refine the breakpoints. We use the real WGS data of two parent-offspring trios to demonstrate TrioCNV2's performance and compare it with other CNV detection approaches. The software TrioCNV2 is implemented using a combination of Java and R and is freely available from the website at https//github.com/yongzhuang/TrioCNV2. More patients with suspected coronary artery disease underwent coronary computed tomography angiography (CCTA) as gatekeeper. However, the prospective relation of plaque features to acute coronary syndrome (ACS) events has not been previously explored. One hundred and one out of 452 patients with documented ACS event and received more than once CCTA during the past 12 years were recruited. Other 101 patients without ACS event were matched as case control. Baseline, follow-up, and changes of anatomical, compositional, and haemodynamic parameters [e.g. luminal stenosis, plaque volume, necrotic core, calcification, and CCTA-derived fractional flow reserve (CT-FFR)] were analysed by independent CCTA measurement core laboratories. Baseline anatomical, compositional, and haemodynamic parameters of lesions showed no significant difference between the two cohorts (P > 0.05). While the culprit lesions exhibited significant increase of luminal stenosis (10.18 ± 2.26% vs. 3.62 ± 1.41%, P = 0.018), remodelling ind imp
