AKE - the Accelerated k-mer Exploration web-tool for rapid taxonomic classification and visualization.
Article in BMC bioinformatics, 2014. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundWith the advent of low cost, fast sequencing technologies metagenomic analyses are made possible. The large data volumes gathered by these techniques and the unpredictable diversity captured in them are still, however, a challenge for computational biology.
resultsIn this paper we address the problem of rapid taxonomic assignment with small and adaptive data models (< 5 MB) and present the accelerated k-mer explorer (AKE). Acceleration in AKE's taxonomic assignments is achieved by a special machine learning architecture, which is well suited to model data collections that are intrinsically hierarchical. We report classification accuracy reasonably well for ranks down to order, observed on a study on real world data (Acid Mine Drainage, Cow Rumen).
conclusionWe show that the execution time of this approach is orders of magnitude shorter than competitive approaches and that accuracy is comparable. The tool is presented to the public as a web application (url: https://ani.cebitec.uni-bielefeld.de/ake/ , username: bmc, password: bmcbioinfo).
