# Results / Overview Tab

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Results (5.3+)" %}
The **Results tab** is your command center for insights! It delivers a clear, high-level snapshot of the most critical findings - like **variants, TMB, MSI, and HRD** - so you can zero in on what matters most. You'll also spot any **quality control alerts** (think run performance, sample integrity, or gene coverage that needs a closer look) and track **case interpretation progress at a glance** - see which findings are already reviewed and which are waiting for your attention. Everything you need, all in one streamlined view!

### Disease

This section displays the disease for the case.

### Case Interpretation Progress

Track your progress with ease. This section shows exactly where you stand in reviewing case findings. A dynamic progress bar gives you instant visual feedback, while the toggle lets you switch between **Needs Review** and **All** to focus on what matters most. Stay in control and keep your workflow moving forward.

A finding is considered reviewed if it has been opened or has been automatically reported according to [Report Automation](/connected-insights/configure/configuration/c-automation.md).

## Monitoring

This section displays a longitudinal plot of variant allele frequency (VAF) for variant detection cases and estimated variant allele frequency (eVAF) for MRD detection cases.

For variant detection cases, the max somatic VAF and VAF of each monitored variant is plotted for each case for the associated subject. If the given pipeline produces max somatic VAF that value is recorded, otherwise the maximum VAF among small variants with FILTER = PASS and Predicted Origin = Somatic is recorded instead.

<figure><img src="https://1917818526-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FrkSuX7Vmcc4W5JjlZQyx%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-e06889f433a79c41af03a87dd88b44350f0fccc0%2Fmonitoring-vaf.png?alt=media" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Select a variant to monitor by clicking the flag icon and selecting **Monitor Variant**. See [Variant Grid Columns - Reported - Flags](/connected-insights/interpret-and-report/inter-variant-grid.md#variant-grid-columns) for more details on how to monitor a variant for a subject.

<div data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="https://1917818526-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FrkSuX7Vmcc4W5JjlZQyx%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-9bbb3ff71ad06723de75e16cb6e2880234454fb5%2Fimage%20(16).png?alt=media" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

For MRD detection cases, the eVAF (in PPM) is plotted for each case for the associated subject. Each data point is marked based on whether ctDNA was detected or not detected for that case.

<figure><img src="https://1917818526-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FrkSuX7Vmcc4W5JjlZQyx%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-2affa436af950c79449ec3a05d9388559dbd7807%2Fmonitoring-evaf.png?alt=media" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

## Signatures

This section showcases the key biological markers that drive interpretation, all sourced from secondary analysis files and displayed for quick reference.

For variant detection cases:

* Tumor Mutational Burden (TMB) - Displays the TMB in **mut/MB**, along with **TMB-Low** or **TMB-High** status.
* Microsatellite Instability (MSI) - Displays the MSI as **percent unstable sites** (e.g., TSO 500) or **sumJSD** (e.g., TSO 500 ctDNA), plus **MS-Stable** and **MSI-High** statuses.
* Homologous Recombination Deficiency (HRD) - Displays the HRD value, along with **HRD-Low** and **HRD-High** statuses.

<div data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="https://1917818526-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FrkSuX7Vmcc4W5JjlZQyx%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-afb7018b131829d917555816ebeba0c232510de7%2Fimage%20(7).png?alt=media" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

For whole genome T/N cases, we take it a step further: related mutations signatures are displayed right next to each relevant biomarker - for example, **ID1 and ID2 signatures appear alongside MSI** - giving you deeper insight into the underlying genomic patterns.

<div data-with-frame="true"><figure><img src="https://1917818526-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FrkSuX7Vmcc4W5JjlZQyx%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-7bb4c8afc75dde668ad6a4775141ddb7660e784d%2Fimage%20(8).png?alt=media" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

### Tumor Model

Get a clear picture of your sample with **Estimated Tumor Purity (%)** and **Estimated Tumor Ploidy**, algorithmically estimated by certain DRAGEN pipelines. These metrics help you understand the complexity and composition of the tumor for interpretation.

You may manually enter Tumor Purity (TP) based on histologic or other methods, either in the absence of an algorithmically estimated value or to override that value. This will recalculate, based on fold change (FC), the copy number (CN) values for all CNV calls displayed in the Results and Variants pages, on each CNV call's Biomarker Details page, and on any report configured to show the CN value. The recalculation assumes a diploid state and uses the formula:

CN = \[(200 × FC) − 2 × (100 − TP)] / TP

for autosomes, PAR regions of sex chromosomes, and female chr X, where FC is fold change and TP is tumor purity (%), and:

CN = \[(100 × FC) − 1 × (100 − TP)] / TP

for male chr X and male chr Y. Note that sex chromosome CN recalculation requires the subject's sex to be specified; if absent but known, sex can be added in the Case Details slide-out.

To modify the Tumor Purity value, select Edit next to the Tumor Model section title. Ploidy can be edited but is only used for display purposes; it is not used in the CN calculation. Only the entered Tumor Purity value will be used. Enter a value between 35 and 100. (This feature is not available for purity estimates below 35%, which are prone to variability and may lead to distorted copy number estimates.) Click Reprocess. Copy number values will be updated for all CNV events represented in the case, and may take a few minutes. Full case reprocessing will not be triggered.

For more information on how to set up disease-specific genes, refer to [Disease Configuration](/connected-insights/configure/configuration/c-disease-configuration.md).

**Gene Coverage**

Gene coverage visualization shows the following data in a linear plot:

* **Transcript exons and introns** ([preferred](/connected-insights/configure/configuration/c-preferred-transcripts.md), MANE Select RefSeq, or RefSeq Select transcript)
* **Coverage depth** on the y-axis (e.g., 50X) along with [thresholds](/connected-insights/configure/configuration/c-pipeline-and-qc-configuration.md)
* **Hotspots** from [Cancer Hotspots](https://www.cancerhotspots.org/#/home) database
* **Variants** that pass [test filters](/connected-insights/configure/configuration/c-test-definition-setup.md)

When coverage is below the threshold, the specific region is reported automatically as having low coverage, along with any hotspots that fall within the region, and the gene is not reported as a pertinent negative.

**Findings**

Findings - such as variants, HLA alleles, [biomarkers](/connected-insights/resources-and-references/a-introduction/a-case-apis.md#add-biomarkers) (e.g., IHC, FISH) - for each gene are shown with a summary of [Biological Classification](/connected-insights/interpret-and-report/viewdetails-introduction/viewdetails-biological-classification-assertions.md) and [Actionability](/connected-insights/interpret-and-report/viewdetails-introduction/viewdetails-actionability.md) from knowledge bases, such as OncoKB, CKB, CIViC, and MyKB.

To interpret variants from the Overview tab, select **Review** or **View**. For more information, refer to [Interpret a Biomarker](/connected-insights/interpret-and-report/inter-interp-a-variant.md).

Gene expression is also shown in transcripts per million (TPM) if provided by the secondary analysis pipeline (e.g., DRAGEN RNA), which we will enable interpretation of in a future release!

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://help.bioinsight.illumina.com/connected-insights/interpret-and-report/cm-overview-tab.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
