Welcome to our research project website Our project explores the correlation between extrachromosomal circular DNA (eccDNA), health examination data, and lifestyle habits. Our study involves a comprehensive analysis of 927 individuals, focusing on 299 significant eccDNAs. The results of our analysis are presented here, making our findings easily accessible to biologists and researchers.

Overview of Our Project Our primary goal is to understand how eccDNAs correlate with various health metrics and lifestyle factors. By analyzing these relationships, we aim to uncover potential biomarkers for health and disease, contributing to the growing field of genomic medicine. Our study's dataset includes extensive health examination data and detailed lifestyle information, providing a robust basis for our analyses.
Key Features
  • Comprehensive Data Analysis: Our platform allows users to explore detailed analyses of eccDNA and their associations with health data. The interactive nature of our website makes it easy for researchers to filter and compare data, gaining insights into the genetic and health profiles of different groups.
  • User-Friendly Interface: We have designed our website with ease of use in mind. The intuitive interface, built using modern web technologies such as HTML, JavaScript, and jQuery, ensures a seamless user experience. Users can navigate through the data effortlessly, thanks to the responsive design and clear visualizations.
  • Interactive Analysis Pages: Our analysis pages are divided into two main sections:
    1. Group Comparison: This feature allows users to filter individuals based on health examination data, creating groups for comparative analysis of their eccDNA profiles.
    2. Specific eccDNA Analysis: Users can select a particular eccDNA to compare health data between individuals who possess this eccDNA and those who do not, with additional insights into related lifestyle habits.
  • Extensive Database References: The website includes links to various external databases like Ensembl and Atlas, providing additional resources for locating promoters, enhancers, genes, and lncRNAs. These references enhance the depth and context of our analyses.
Collaboration and Future Directions We believe that our research can pave the way for new discoveries in the field of genomic health. By making our data and analysis tools publicly available, we hope to foster collaboration and innovation among researchers worldwide. Our project is continuously evolving, with plans to integrate more data and expand our analytical capabilities.
