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 transcriptomics suffer from sensitivity limits that restrict low abundance transcript identification, affects clustering and can hamper downstream analyses. Here, we describe Constellation sequencing (Constellation-Seq), a molecular transcriptome filter that delivers two orders of magnitude sensitivity gains by maximizing read utility while reducing the data sparsity and sequencing costs. The technique reliably measures changes in gene expression and was demonstrated by resolving rare dendritic cell populations from a peripheral blood mononuclear cell sample sample and exploring their biology with extreme resolution. The simple and powerful method is fully compatible with standard scRNA-Seq library preparation protocols and can be used for hypothesis testing, marker validation or investigating pathways.
