16S-Pipeline: A comprehensive web-based platform for end-to-end 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing analysis.
Article in Journal of microbiology (Seoul, Korea), 2026. 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
16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing is the most widely used approach for characterizing microbial communities, yet analyzing such data requires navigating a fragmented landscape of bioinformatics tools with distinct installation requirements, parameter settings, and data formats. Here we present 16S-Pipeline, an open-source, web-based platform that provides a complete workflow from raw FASTQ files to publication-ready statistical analyses. 16S-Pipeline automatically detects sequencing type (paired-end, single-end, long-read), variable region, and sequencing platform (Illumina, PacBio HiFi, Nanopore), then performs quality filtering, primer trimming, amplicon sequence variant (ASV) inference via DADA2, taxonomy assignment against SILVA v138.1, phylogenetic tree construction, and optional functional prediction via PICRUSt2. Downstream analyses include alpha and beta diversity, taxonomic composition visualization, differential abundance testing using five complementary methods (ALDEx2, DESeq2, ANCOM-BC2, LinDA, MaAsLin2) with consensus reporting, and KEGG pathway mapping. Built-in NCBI SRA integration enables downloading public datasets for re-analysis and generates submission metadata spreadsheets for data deposition. The interactive web interface built on FastAPI and Plotly Dash enables researchers to perform complex microbiome analyses without command-line expertise. 16S-Pipeline is freely available at https://github.com/tatsu1207/16S-Pipeline under the MIT License.
