BugBuster: a novel automatic and reproducible workflow for metagenomic data analysis.
Article in Bioinformatics advances, 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
Summary: Metagenomic sequencing generates massive datasets that capture the complete genetic content of a sample, enabling detailed characterization of microbial communities. Yet the software and processes necessary to transform raw data into biologically meaningful results have become increasingly complex, limiting accessibility for researchers without specialist expertise. In this work, we present a novel modular a reproducible workflow developed to facilitate the analysis of metagenomic data. BugBuster is a fully containerized, modular, and reproducible workflow implemented in Nextflow. The pipeline streamlines analysis at level of reads, contigs, and metagenome-assembled genomes, offering dedicated modules for taxonomic profiling and resistome characterization. Thanks to the use of containers, BugBuster can be deployed with minimal configuration on workstations, high-performance clusters, or cloud platforms. Together, these features allow the robust, scalable, and reproducible analysis of metagenomic datasets. Availability and implementation: BugBuster was written in Nextflow-DSL2. The program applications, user manual, example data and code are freely available at https://github.com/gene2dis/BugBuster.
