Molecular Acquisition, Cleaning and Evaluation in R (MACER) - A tool to assemble molecular marker datasets from BOLD and GenBank.
Article in Biodiversity data journal, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Molecular sequence data is an essential component for many biological fields of study. The strength of these data is in their ability to be centralised and compared across research studies. There are many online repositories for molecular sequence data, some of which are very large accumulations of varying data types like NCBI's GenBank. Due to the size and the complexity of the data in these repositories, challenges arise in searching for data of interest. While data repositories exist for molecular markers, taxa and other specific research interests, repositories may not contain, or be suitable for, more specific applications. Manually accessing, searching, downloading, accumulating, dereplicating and cleaning data to construct project-specific datasets is time-consuming. In addition, the manual assembly of datasets presents challenges with reproducibility. Here, we present the MACER package to assist researchers in assembling molecular datasets and provide reproducibility in the process.
