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

motivationTransposable elements (TE) have played a major role in configuring the structures of mammalian genomes through evolution. In normal conditions, the expression of these elements is repressed by different epigenetic regulation mechanisms such as DNA methylation, histone modification and regulation by small RNAs. TE re-activation is associated with stemness potential acquisition, regulation of innate immunity and disease, such as cancer. However, the vast majority of current knowledge in the field is based on bulk expression studies, and very little is known on cell-type- or state-specific expression of TE-derived transcripts. Therefore, cost-efficient single-cell-resolution TE expression analytical approaches are needed.

resultsWe have implemented an analytical approach based on pseudoalignment to consensus sequences to incorporate TE expression information to scRNAseq data. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: All the data and code implemented are available as Supplementary data and in: https://github.com/jmzvillarreal/kallisto_TE_scRNAseq. SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: Supplementary data are available at Bioinformatics online.
