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

Embryoid bodies (EBs) are aggregate of cells that contain three embryonic germ layers. They can be formed by direct differentiation from pluripotent embryonic stem cells (ESCs), which serves as a useful model for understanding early embryo development. Due to the mixture of different cell types, it is necessary to investigate EBs at the single-cell level. Here, we describe a robust and straightforward method for single-cell gene expression profiling during mouse EB differentiation from mouse ESCs (mESCs). The protocol is modified from a widely used method in the SMART-seq family, which only requires standard molecular biology techniques and lab equipment. It allows for accurate 3' counting of transcript at the single-cell level, which helps reveal cellular identities during EB formation. Combined with perturbation experiments, the method provides an opportunity for mechanistic studies of embryo development at the single-cell level.
