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

summaryAccurate metagenomic taxonomic profiling is critical for understanding microbial communities. However, computational analysis often requires command-line proficiency and high-performance computing resources. To lower these barriers, we developed Metabuli App, an all-in-one desktop application that efficiently runs taxonomic profiling locally on a consumer-grade computer. It features user-friendly graphical interfaces for custom database curation, raw read quality control (QC), taxonomic profiling, and interactive result visualization. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: GPLv3-licensed source code and prebuilt apps for Windows, macOS, and Linux are available at https://github.com/steineggerlab/Metabuli-App and are archived at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15876171. Analysis scripts are available at https://github.com/jaebeom-kim/metabuli-app-analysis. The Sankey-based taxonomy visualization component is available at https://github.com/steineggerlab/taxoview for easy integration into other web projects.
