MetaboAnalystR: an R package for flexible and reproducible analysis of metabolomics data

Open access
Chong, Jasmine, Xia, Jianguo·2018·Bioinformatics

Abstract

Summary: The MetaboAnalyst web application has been widely used for metabolomics data analysis and interpretation. Despite its user-friendliness, the web interface has presented its inherent limitations (especially for advanced users) with regard to flexibility in creating customized workflow, support for reproducible analysis, and capacity in dealing with large data. To address these limitations, we have developed a companion R package (MetaboAnalystR) based on the R code base of the web server. The package has been thoroughly tested to ensure that the same R commands will produce identical results from both interfaces. MetaboAnalystR complements the MetaboAnalyst web server to facilitate transparent, flexible and reproducible analysis of metabolomics data. Availability and implementation: MetaboAnalystR is freely available from https://github.com/xia-lab/MetaboAnalystR.

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.
