Hi Yan,
Yes, "Slice BAM" is like a filter, so the output should be smaller if
some of the data mapped to regions outside of the intervals (entirely -
no overlap). You can run flagstat on both files and compare the two
numbers to see the difference/what was filtered.
For QC-passed/failed - this is a great question without a simple answer
(as it has some history). Or so I thought. Then, I found a very simple
post by Prof Albert on Biostar addressing the same question, that I
think is about as good as it can get! (Main point = can safely ignore)

Hope this helps!

Hi Jen and other galaxy-users,
I was using "Slice BAM" tool on Galaxy to get the alignment overlap
with the targeted intervals. After I got the output BAM file, I used
"flagstat" to get the detailed information of the output BAM file.
What I got from "flagstat" is as following.
"13704486 + 0 in total (QC-passed reads + QC-failed reads)
0 + 0 duplicates
2989995 + 0 mapped (21.82%:-nan%)
13704486 + 0 paired in sequencing"
What's the QC-passed reads? What's the mapped reads? Should I only get
the mapped reads to the targeted intervals? I am very confused. Any
help is highly appreciated! Thanks a lot!
Best wishes,
Yan
