MiCoDe: a web tool for performing microbiome community detection using a Bayesian weighted stochastic block model.
Article in Bioinformatics (Oxford, England), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
summaryThe Microbiome Community Detector (MiCoDe) software is a free user-friendly web tool that is designed to cluster a network of microbial taxa into communities using a Bayesian weighted stochastic block model. MiCoDe also filters the data automatically and accounts for the challenges of microbiome high-throughput sequencing data including high-dimensionality, compositionality, zero inflation, and nonlinearity. While MiCoDe is based on a rigorous statistical unsupervised learning model, our web tool can be easily used by any investigator. Users simply upload a csv file that contains their taxonomic abundance data where rows correspond to samples and columns correspond to taxa. Then, users make a few selections regarding data transformation, network estimation, and the number of communities in order to run the online analysis. If users are unsure of what selections to make, then they can opt for the default settings as these are our recommended settings. In this paper, we discuss the motivation, methodology, implementation, and results of MiCoDe. We also discuss how MiCoDe can be adapted by the user and how it may evolve over time. Our software is a valuable tool for microbiome community detection. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: MiCoDe is freely available online at https://lce.biohpc.swmed.edu/micode/, does not require installation, and is not browser-specific. Users can also work locally using our R code, which is freely available on GitHub at https://github.com/klutz920/MiCoDe.
