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

The recently developed single-cell CRISPR screening techniques, independently termed Perturb-Seq, CRISP-seq, or CROP-seq, combine pooled CRISPR screening with single-cell RNA-seq to investigate functional CRISPR screening in a single-cell granularity. Here, we present MUSIC, an integrated pipeline for model-based understanding of single-cell CRISPR screening data. Comprehensive tests applied to all the publicly available data revealed that MUSIC accurately quantifies and prioritizes the individual gene perturbation effect on cell phenotypes with tolerance for the substantial noise that exists in such data analysis. MUSIC facilitates the single-cell CRISPR screening from three perspectives, i.e., prioritizing the gene perturbation effect as an overall perturbation effect, in a functional topic-specific way, and quantifying the relationships between different perturbations. In summary, MUSIC provides an effective and applicable solution to elucidate perturbation function and biologic circuits by a model-based quantitative analysis of single-cell-based CRISPR screening data.
