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

We propose TWO-SIGMA-G, a competitive gene set test for scRNA-seq data. TWO-SIGMA-G uses a mixed-effects regression model based on our previously published TWO-SIGMA to test for differential expression at the gene-level. This regression-based model provides flexibility and rigor at the gene-level in (1) handling complex experimental designs, (2) accounting for the correlation between biological replicates and (3) accommodating the distribution of scRNA-seq data to improve statistical inference. Moreover, TWO-SIGMA-G uses a novel approach to adjust for inter-gene-correlation (IGC) at the set-level to control the set-level false positive rate. Simulations demonstrate that TWO-SIGMA-G preserves type-I error and increases power in the presence of IGC compared with other methods. Application to two datasets identified HIV-associated interferon pathways in xenograft mice and pathways associated with Alzheimer's disease progression in humans.
