Comparison between true versus false positive status of small copy number variants (CNVs) detected by chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) and their size, confidence value, marker count and marker count per kb. (A) False positive CNVs were significantly smaller in size (3–181 kb, median 19 kb, mean 45.3 kb) than true CNVs (2–492 kb, median 131 kb, mean 164.7 kb) (p<0.0001). (B) There was also a significant difference between the two groups regarding their confidence values (mean of 88.9% vs 91.9%, p<0.0001) and (C) marker count (median of 20 vs 96, mean of 39.9 vs 163.8, p<0.0001). (D) No significant difference was observed for the marker count per kb within the CNV (1.5±1.14 vs 1.1±0.67, p=0.1).
