From data to publication in a browser with BRC-Analytics: Evolutionary dynamics of coding overlaps in measles virus.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
The analytical landscape of pathogen research is often fragmented, hindering transparency and reproducibility due to diverse genomic data sources, numerous software tools, and suboptimal integration methods. Here we introduce BRC-analytics, a novel browser-based environment that unifies authoritative sources of genomic data with community-curated best analysis practices on a freely accessible public computational infrastructure. We demonstrate its capabilities by analyzing the evolutionary dynamics within the P/V/C locus of the measles virus, a complex system involving overlapping coding regions and RNA editing. Our analysis, conducted entirely within BRC-analytics, reveals asymmetric evolution of the locus's reading frames under distinct selective pressures. BRC-analytics streamlines the entire research process-from data collection and primary analysis (e.g., variant calling) to interpretation (e.g., using integrated JupyterLite notebooks and LLMs) and publication-into a single web browser session. This eliminates the need for local installations and manual data transfers, implicitly tracking provenance and ensuring reproducibility. The platform's goal is to provide true data-to-publication functionality, making advanced pathogen genomics accessible to a broader research community regardless of their computational expertise or infrastructure access.
