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

The use of genomics is firmly established in clinical practice, resulting in innovations across a wide range of disciplines such as genetic screening, rare disease diagnosis and molecularly guided therapy choice. This new field of genomic medicine has led to improvements in patient outcomes. However, most clinical applications of genomics rely on information generated from bulk approaches, which do not directly capture the genomic variation that underlies cellular heterogeneity. With the advent of single-cell technologies, research is rapidly uncovering how genomic data at cellular resolution can be used to understand disease pathology and mechanisms. Both DNA-based and RNA-based single-cell technologies have the potential to improve existing clinical applications and open new application spaces for genomics in clinical practice, with oncology, immunology and haematology poised for initial adoption. However, challenges in translating cellular genomics from research to a clinical setting must first be overcome.
