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

backgroundConstruction of kinship matrices among individuals is an important step for both association studies and prediction studies based on different levels of omic data. Methods for constructing kinship matrices are becoming diverse and different methods have their specific appropriate scenes. However, software that can comprehensively calculate kinship matrices for a variety of scenarios is still in an urgent demand.

resultsIn this study, we developed an efficient and user-friendly python module, PyAGH, that can accomplish (1) conventional additive kinship matrces construction based on pedigree, genotypes, abundance data from transcriptome or microbiome; (2) genomic kinship matrices construction in combined population; (3) dominant and epistatic effects kinship matrices construction; (4) pedigree selection, tracing, detection and visualization; (5) visualization of cluster, heatmap and PCA analysis based on kinship matrices. The output from PyAGH can be easily integrated in other mainstream software based on users' purposes. Compared with other softwares, PyAGH integrates multiple methods for calculating the kinship matrix and has advantages in terms of speed and data size compared to other software. PyAGH is developed in python and C +  + and can be easily installed by pip tool. Installation instructions and a manual document can be freely available from https://github.com/zhaow-01/PyAGH .

conclusionPyAGH is a fast and user-friendly Python package for calculating kinship matrices using pedigree, genotype, microbiome and transcriptome data as well as processing, analyzing and visualizing data and results. This package makes it easier to perform predictions and association studies processes based on different levels of omic data.
