appMAGI: A complete laboratory information management system for clinical diagnostics.
Article in Acta bio-medica : Atenei Parmensis, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
backgroundThe increasing demand for genetic testing for clinical diagnosis and research challenges genetic laboratory capacity to track an increasing number of patient samples through all steps of analysis, from sample collection to report generation. This task is usually performed with the help of a laboratory information management system (LIMS), software that makes it possible to collect, store and retrieve laboratory and sample data. To date there are no open-source options that can manage the entire analytical flow of a genetic laboratory. appMAGI seeks to include all the management aspects of a clinical diagnostic laboratory, making it simpler to process many samples while maintaining the high security and quality standards required in clinical diagnostic practice.
methodsappMAGI is written in python using Django. It is a web application that does not require local installation, making development, updates and maintenance a much easier task. appMAGI runs on the Ubuntu server and uses SQLite as engine database.
resultsIn this work we describe an innovative LIMS called appMAGI designed to support all aspects of a clinical diagnostic laboratory. appMAGI can track samples throughout the diagnostic workflow and NGS analysis by virtue of a customizable bioinformatics pipeline. It can handle sample non-compliance, manage laboratory stocks, help generate reports and provide insights into sample data by means of special tools.
conclusionsappMAGI is a LIMS endowed with all the features required to manage thousands of samples. Allowing efficient management of patient samples from sample collection to diagnostic report generation.
