blast2galaxy: a CLI and Python API for BLAST+ and DIAMOND searches on Galaxy servers.
Article in Bioinformatics advances, 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
Motivation: The Galaxy workflow system is an open-source platform supporting data-intensive research in life sciences, featuring a user-friendly web interface for complex analyses without extensive programming. It also offers a representational state transfer based API, enabling remote execution of specific tools. Galaxy supports similarity searches for nucleotide and amino acid sequences, with integrated tools like NCBI BLAST+ and DIAMOND. However, no specialized software currently exists for convenient use of NCBI BLAST+ and DIAMOND via the Galaxy API. Results: blast2galaxy is a Python package that uses the Galaxy API to run sequence alignments with NCBI BLAST+ and DIAMOND as Galaxy-wrapped tools on compatible servers. It includes a command-line interface that mirrors the CLI of BLAST+ and DIAMOND and a high-level Python API for direct alignments from Python applications. The package relies on bioblend for communication with the Galaxy API. Availability and implementation: blast2galaxy is available as open-source software under the MIT license. The source code is available on Github: https://github.com/IPK-BIT/blast2galaxy. It can be installed from the Python Package Index using "pip install blast2galaxy" or from the Bioconda channel using "conda install -c bioconda blast2galaxy". Docker and Apptainer images are available and referenced in the documentation which is available under https://blast2galaxy.readthedocs.io.
