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

Despite improvements in microscopically neurosurgical techniques made in recent years, the prognosis of adamantinomatous craniopharyngioma (ACP) is still unsatisfactory. Little is known about cellular atlas and biological features of ACP. Here, we carried out integrative analysis of 44,038 single-cell transcriptome profiles to characterize the landscape of intratumoral heterogeneity and tumor microenvironment (TME) in ACP. Four major neoplastic cell states with distinctive expression signatures were defined, which further revealed the histopathological features and elucidated unknown cellular atlas of ACP. Pseudotime analyses suggested potential evolutionary trajectories between specific neoplastic cell states. Notably, a distinct oligodendrocyte lineage was identified in ACP, which was associated with immunological infiltration and neural damage. In addition, we described a tumor-centric regulatory network based on intercellular communication in TME. Together, our findings represent a unique resource for deciphering tumor heterogeneity of ACP, which will improve clinical diagnosis and treatment strategies.
