1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

backgroundDepth of coverage calculation is an important and computationally intensive preprocessing step in a variety of next-generation sequencing pipelines, including the analysis of RNA-sequencing data, detection of copy number variants, or quality control procedures.

resultsBuilding upon big data technologies, we have developed SeQuiLa-cov, an extension to the recently released SeQuiLa platform, which provides efficient depth of coverage calculations, reaching >100× speedup over the state-of-the-art tools. The performance and scalability of our solution allow for exome and genome-wide calculations running locally or on a cluster while hiding the complexity of the distributed computing with Structured Query Language Application Programming Interface.

conclusionsSeQuiLa-cov provides significant performance gain in depth of coverage calculations streamlining the widely used bioinformatic processing pipelines.
