SeqWiz: a modularized toolkit for next-generation protein sequence database management and analysis.
Article in BMC bioinformatics, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
backgroundCurrent proteomic technologies are fast-evolving to uncover the complex features of sequence processes, variations and modifications. Thus, protein sequence database and the corresponding softwares should also be improved to solve this issue.
resultsWe developed a state-of-the-art toolkit (SeqWiz) for constructing next-generation sequence databases and performing proteomic-centric sequence analyses. First, we proposed two derived data formats: SQPD (a well-structured and high-performance local sequence database based on SQLite), and SET (an associated list of selected entries based on JSON). The SQPD format follows the basic standards of the emerging PEFF format, which also aims to facilitate the search of complex proteoform. The SET format is designed for generating subsets with with high-efficiency. These formats are shown to greatly outperform the conventional FASTA or PEFF formats in time and resource consumption. Then, we mainly focused on the UniProt knowledgebase and developed a collection of open-source tools and basic modules for retrieving species-specific databases, formats conversion, sequence generation, sequence filter, and sequence analysis. These tools are implemented by using the Python language and licensed under the GNU General Public Licence V3. The source codes and distributions are freely available at GitHub ( https://github.com/fountao/protwiz/tree/main/seqwiz ).
conclusionsSeqWiz is designed to be a collection of modularized tools, which is friendly to both end-users for preparing easy-to-use sequence databases as well as bioinformaticians for performing downstream sequence analysis. Besides the novel formats, it also provides compatible functions for handling the traditional text based FASTA or PEFF formats. We believe that SeqWiz will promote the implementing of complementary proteomics for data renewal and proteoform analysis to achieve precision proteomics. Additionally, it can also drive the improvement of proteomic standardization and the development of next-generation proteomic softwares.
