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

UNIFAN is an unsupervised cell type annotation tool for single-cell RNA sequencing data (scRNA-seq). Given single-cell expression data as input, UNIFAN outputs cell clusters as well as annotations for each cluster. The clustering process utilizes information on pathways and biological processes and these are also used to annotate the resulting clusters. In this software article, we focus on how to install UNIFAN and on the main steps involved in using UNIFAN for cell type annotations.
