BATMAN: Fast and Accurate Integration of Single-Cell RNA-Seq Datasets via Minimum-Weight Matching.
Article in iScience, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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 RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) is a set of technologies used to profile gene expression at the level of individual cells. Although the throughput of scRNA-seq experiments is steadily growing in terms of the number of cells, large datasets are not yet commonly generated owing to prohibitively high costs. Integrating multiple datasets into one can improve power in scRNA-seq experiments, and efficient integration is very important for downstream analyses such as identifying cell-type-specific eQTLs. State-of-the-art scRNA-seq integration methods are based on the mutual nearest neighbor paradigm and fail to both correct for batch effects and maintain the local structure of the datasets. In this paper, we propose a novel scRNA-seq dataset integration method called BATMAN (BATch integration via minimum-weight MAtchiNg). Across multiple simulations and real datasets, we show that our method significantly outperforms state-of-the-art tools with respect to existing metrics for batch effects by up to 80% while retaining cell-to-cell relationships.
