ReUseData: an R/Bioconductor tool for reusable and reproducible genomic data management.
Article in BMC bioinformatics, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
backgroundThe increasing volume and complexity of genomic data pose significant challenges for effective data management and reuse. Public genomic data often undergo similar preprocessing across projects, leading to redundant or inconsistent datasets and inefficient use of computing resources. This is especially pertinent for bioinformaticians engaged in multiple projects. Tools have been created to address challenges in managing and accessing curated genomic datasets, however, the practical utility of such tools becomes especially beneficial for users who seek to work with specific types of data or are technically inclined toward a particular programming language. Currently, there exists a gap in the availability of an R-specific solution for efficient data management and versatile data reuse.
resultsHere we present ReUseData, an R software tool that overcomes some of the limitations of existing solutions and provides a versatile and reproducible approach to effective data management within R. ReUseData facilitates the transformation of ad hoc scripts for data preprocessing into Common Workflow Language (CWL)-based data recipes, allowing for the reproducible generation of curated data files in their generic formats. The data recipes are standardized and self-contained, enabling them to be easily portable and reproducible across various computing platforms. ReUseData also streamlines the reuse of curated data files and their integration into downstream analysis tools and workflows with different frameworks.
conclusionsReUseData provides a reliable and reproducible approach for genomic data management within the R environment to enhance the accessibility and reusability of genomic data. The package is available at Bioconductor ( https://bioconductor.org/packages/ReUseData/ ) with additional information on the project website ( https://rcwl.org/dataRecipes/ ).
