1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Single-cell variations in gene and protein expression are important during development and disease. Such cell-to-cell heterogeneities can be directly inspected one cell at a time, but global methods are usually not sensitive enough to work with the starting material of a single cell. Here we provide a detailed protocol for stochastic profiling, a method that infers single-cell regulatory heterogeneities by repeatedly sampling small collections of cells selected at random. Repeated stochastic sampling is performed by laser-capture microdissection or limiting dilution, followed by careful exponential cDNA amplification, hybridization to microarrays and statistical analysis. Stochastic profiling surveys the transcriptome for programs that are heterogeneously regulated among cellular subpopulations in their native tissue context. The protocol is readily optimized for specific biological applications and takes about 1 week to complete.
