ReDU: a framework to find and reanalyze public mass spectrometry data
Open accessPublished version of a preprint
Abstract
We present ReDU ( https://redu.ucsd.edu/ ), a system for metadata capture of public mass spectrometry-based metabolomics data, with validated controlled vocabularies. Systematic capture of knowledge enables the reanalysis of public data and/or co-analysis of one's own data. ReDU enables multiple types of analyses, including finding chemicals and associated metadata, comparing the shared and different chemicals between groups of samples, and metadata-filtered, repository-scale molecular networking.

The ReDU ecosystem provides consistent and comprehensive metadata and crowdsources over 71 K experimental samples.
“The key experimental context is provided by consistent and comprehensive metadata provided by the Reanalysis of Data User (ReDU)156 ecosystem that utilizes controlled vocabularies to crowdsource over 71 K experimental samples.”
From Connecting metabolome and phenotype: recent advances in functional metabolomics tools for the identification of bioactive natural products (2024) · cites this paper as [156]
The Abstract says ReDU uses consistent, validated metadata created by users through a template with controlled vocabularies. It reports 38,305 ReDU-compatible files, not over 71,000 experimental samples; the claimed sample count is not supported by this copy. (LLM, conf=0.86)

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
