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

Metagenomics is the study of genomic DNA recovered from a microbial community. Both assembly-based and mapping-based methods have been used to analyze metagenomic data. When appropriate gene catalogs are available, mapping-based methods are preferred over assembly based approaches, especially for analyzing the data at the functional level. In this study, we introduce CAMAMED as a composition-aware mapping-based metagenomic data analysis pipeline. This pipeline can analyze metagenomic samples at both taxonomic and functional profiling levels. Using this pipeline, metagenome sequences can be mapped to non-redundant gene catalogs and the gene frequency in the samples are obtained. Due to the highly compositional nature of metagenomic data, the cumulative sum-scaling method is used at both taxa and gene levels for compositional data analysis in our pipeline. Additionally, by mapping the genes to the KEGG database, annotations related to each gene can be extracted at different functional levels such as KEGG ortholog groups, enzyme commission numbers and reactions. Furthermore, the pipeline enables the user to identify potential biomarkers in case-control metagenomic samples by investigating functional differences. The source code for this software is available from https://github.com/mhnb/camamed. Also, the ready to use Docker images are available at https://hub.docker.com.
