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

RNA sequencing data manipulation workflows are complex and require various skills and tools. This creates the need for user-friendly and integrated genomic data analysis and visualization tools. We developed a novel R package using multiple Cran and Bioconductor packages to perform gene expression analysis and genetic variant calling from RNA sequencing data. Multiple public datasets were analyzed using the developed package to validate the pipeline for all the supported species. The developed R package, named "exvar", includes multiple data analysis functions and three data visualization shiny apps integrated as functions. Also, it could be used to analyze several species' data. The exvar package is available in the project's GitHub repository ( https://github.com/omicscodeathon/exvar ).
