# Siftome Ranked Dataset Export

Active GEO index contains 47389 ranked datasets; organism mixed: Homo sapiens (35667), Mus musculus (11722); assay type mixed: microarray (24601), bulk RNA-seq (22787), other assay type (1). Rankings use the Tumor vs normal comparison with transparent suitability, metadata quality, and warning rules.

Exploratory machine assessment; not a reviewed, frozen cohort or analysis approval. Study totals and cohort membership counts are not query-eligible sample counts. Unavailable eligibility evidence is unknown.

Results are a starting point for review. Missing evidence leaves suitability unknown.
