Leveraging the cell lineage to predict cell-type specificity of regulatory variation from bulk genomics.
Article in Genetics, 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Recent computational methods have enabled the inference of the cell-type-specificity of eQTLs based on bulk transcriptomes from highly heterogeneous tissues. However, these methods are limited in their scalability to highly heterogeneous tissues and limited in their broad applicability to any cell-type specificity of eQTLs. Here we present and demonstrate Cell Lineage Genetics (CeL-Gen), a novel computational approach that allows inference of eQTLs together with the subsets of cell types in which they have an effect, from bulk transcriptome data. To obtain improved scalability and broader applicability, CeL-Gen takes as input the known cell lineage tree and relies on the observation that dynamic changes in genetic effects occur relatively infrequently during cell differentiation. CeL-Gen can therefore be used not only to tease apart genetic effects derived from different cell types but also to infer the particular differentiation steps in which genetic effects are altered.
