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

Assays for transposase-accessible chromatin through high-throughput sequencing (ATAC-seq) are effective tools in the study of genome-wide chromatin accessibility landscapes. With the rapid development of single-cell technology, open chromatin regions that play essential roles in epigenetic regulation have been measured at the single-cell level using single-cell ATAC-seq approaches. The application of scATAC-seq has become as popular as that of scRNA-seq. However, owing to the nature of scATAC-seq data, which are sparse and noisy, processing the data requires different methodologies and empirical experience. This review presents a practical guide for processing scATAC-seq data, from quality evaluation to downstream analysis, for various applications. In addition to the epigenomic profiling from scATAC-seq, we also discuss recent studies in which the function of non-coding variants has been investigated based on cell type-specific cis-regulatory elements and how to use the by-product genetic information obtained from scATAC-seq to infer single-cell copy number variants and trace cell lineage. We anticipate that this review will assist researchers in designing and implementing scATAC-seq assays to facilitate research in diverse fields.
