Closha 2.0: a bio-workflow design system for massive genome data analysis on high performance cluster infrastructure.
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 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
backgroundThe explosive growth of next-generation sequencing data has resulted in ultra-large-scale datasets and significant computational challenges. As the cost of next-generation sequencing (NGS) has decreased, the amount of genomic data has surged globally. However, the cost and complexity of the computational resources required continue to be substantial barriers to leveraging big data. A promising solution to these computational challenges is cloud computing, which provides researchers with the necessary CPUs, memory, storage, and software tools.
resultsHere, we present Closha 2.0, a cloud computing service that offers a user-friendly platform for analyzing massive genomic datasets. Closha 2.0 is designed to provide a cloud-based environment that enables all genomic researchers, including those with limited or no programming experience, to easily analyze their genomic data. The new 2.0 version of Closha has more user-friendly features than the previous 1.0 version. Firstly, the workbench features a script editor that supports Python, R, and shell script programming, enabling users to write scripts and integrate them into their pipelines. This functionality is particularly useful for downstream analysis. Second, Closha 2.0 runs on containers, which execute each tool in an independent environment. This provides a stable environment and prevents dependency issues and version conflicts among tools. Additionally, users can execute each step of a pipeline individually, allowing them to test applications at each stage and adjust parameters to achieve the desired results. We also updated a high-speed data transmission tool called GBox that facilitates the rapid transfer of large datasets.
conclusionsThe analysis pipelines on Closha 2.0 are reproducible, with all analysis parameters and inputs being permanently recorded. Closha 2.0 simplifies multi-step analysis with drag-and-drop functionality and provides a user-friendly interface for genomic scientists to obtain accurate results from NGS data.
