Isolation of Nasal Brush Cells for Single-cell Preparations.
Article in Bio-protocol, 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
Solitary chemosensory epithelial cells are scattered in most mucosal surfaces. They are referred to as tuft cells in the intestinal mucosa, brush cells in the trachea, and solitary chemosensory and microvillous cells in the nasal mucosa. They are the primary source of IL-25 in the epithelium and are also engaged in acetylcholine generation. We recently demonstrated that nasal solitary chemosensory (brush) cells can generate robust levels of cysteinyl leukotrienes in response to stimulation with calcium ionophore, aeroallergens, and danger-associated molecules, such as ATP and UTP, and this mechanism depends on brush cell expression of the purinergic receptor P2Y2. This protocol describes an effective method of nasal brush cell isolation in the mouse. The method is based on physical separation of the mucosal layer of the nasal cavity and pre-incubation with dispase, followed by digestion with papain solution. The single cell suspension obtained this way contains a high yield of brush cells for fluorescence-activated cell sorting (FACS), RNA-sequencing, and
