Next-generation sequencing applications in food science: fundamentals and recent advances.
Review in Frontiers in bioengineering and biotechnology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has revolutionized food science, offering unprecedented insights into microbial communities, food safety, fermentation, and product authenticity. NGS techniques, including metagenetics, metagenomics, and metatranscriptomics, enable culture-independent pathogen detection, antimicrobial resistance surveillance, and detailed microbial profiling, significantly improving food safety monitoring and outbreak prevention. In food fermentation, NGS has enhanced our understanding of microbial interactions, flavor formation, and metabolic pathways, contributing to optimized starter cultures and improved product quality. Furthermore, NGS has become a valuable tool in food authentication and traceability, ensuring product integrity and detecting fraud. Despite its advantages, challenges such as high sequencing costs, data interpretation complexity, and the need for standardized workflows remain. Future research focusing on optimizing real-time sequencing technologies, expanding multi-omics approaches, and addressing regulatory frameworks is suggested to fully harness NGS's potential in ensuring food safety, quality, and innovation.
