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

summaryWe developed the MicrobiomeExplorer R package to facilitate the analysis and visualization of microbial communities. The MicrobiomeExplorer R package allows a user to perform typical microbiome analytic workflows and visualize their results, either through the command line or an interactive Shiny application included with the package. In addition to applying common analytical workflows, the application enables automated analysis report generation. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: Available at https://github.com/zoecastillo/microbiomeExplorer. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
