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

backgroundsAbnormal vertebral growth and development have been found in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS) patients, and the proliferation and differentiation of bone development-related cells play important roles in its pathogenesis. However, a comprehensive single-cell-level differentiation roadmap in AIS has not been achieved.

methodsThe present study compared the single-cell level cellular landscapes of spinal cancellous bone tissues between AIS patients and healthy subjects using high throughput single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq), which covers multiple cellular lineages including osteoblast, chondrocyte, osteoclast and related immunocytes. We constructed the differentiation trajectories of bone development-related cell lineages through pseudotime analysis, and the intercellular-communication networks between bone development-related cells and immunocytes were further developed.

resultsA total of 11 distinct cell clusters were identified according to the genome-wide transcriptome profiles.

conclusionsOur single-cell analysis first revealed differences existed in the cellular states between AIS patients and healthy subjects and found the differentiation disruption of specific MSC and CPC clusters in AIS. Cell communication analysis provided the possible pathogenesis of osteoblast and chondrocyte differentiation dysfunction in AIS.
