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

Regulatory dependencies in molecular networks are the basis of dynamic behaviors affecting the phenotypical landscape. With the advance of high throughput technologies, the detail of omics data has arrived at the single-cell level. Nevertheless, new strategies are required to reconstruct regulatory networks based on populations of single-cell data. Here, we present a new approach to generate populations of gene regulatory networks from single-cell RNA-sequencing (scRNA-seq) data. Our approach exploits the heterogeneity of single-cell populations to generate pseudo-timepoints. This allows for the first time to uncouple network reconstruction from a direct dependency on time series measurements. The generated time series are then fed to a combined reconstruction algorithm. The latter allows a fast and efficient reconstruction of ensembles of gene regulatory networks. Since this approach does not require knowledge on time-related trajectories, it allows us to model heterogeneous processes such as aging. Applying the approach to the aging-associated NF-
