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

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) reveals the transcriptional heterogeneity of cells, but the static snapshots fail to reveal the time-resolved dynamics of transcription. Herein, we develop Well-TEMP-seq, a high-throughput, cost-effective, accurate, and efficient method for massively parallel profiling the temporal dynamics of single-cell gene expression. Well-TEMP-seq combines metabolic RNA labeling with scRNA-seq method Well-paired-seq to distinguish newly transcribed RNAs marked by T-to-C substitutions from pre-existing RNAs in each of thousands of single cells. The Well-paired-seq chip ensures a high single cell/barcoded bead pairing rate (~80%) and the improved alkylation chemistry on beads greatly alleviates chemical conversion-induced cell loss (~67.5% recovery). We further apply Well-TEMP-seq to profile the transcriptional dynamics of colorectal cancer cells exposed to 5-AZA-CdR, a DNA-demethylating drug. Well-TEMP-seq unbiasedly captures the RNA dynamics and outperforms the splicing-based RNA velocity method. We anticipate that Well-TEMP-seq will be broadly applicable to unveil the dynamics of single-cell gene expression in diverse biological processes.
