Integration of Single-Cell Transcriptomics Data Reveal Differences in Cell Composition and Communication in Acne.
Article in Clinical, cosmetic and investigational dermatology, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
Purpose: Acne is a kind of hair follicle sebaceous inflammatory disease, which has a high incidence rate among adolescents. Comparative data on cells which beneficial for precise treatment of acne patients. Patients and Methods: After integrating and removing the batch effect of single-cell transcriptomics data of acne patients and health skin, the dimensionality reduction clustering was performed and the change in characteristics of each cell group were analyzed. Further, cell communication differences between gender were analyzed by use Cellchat software. Results: 70,189 cells were analyzed, and 11 cell groups were identified. The proportion of basal cells and macrophages in skin of acne patients are relatively high than that of skin in healthy people. The results of cell communication showed that the communication intensity of acne patients was significantly higher than that of healthy skin, and the endothelial cells showed a strong ability to receive signals. From the perspective of gender differences, the proportion of macrophages in male patients were higher than that in female patients, and there were a large number of basal cells in the lesion area of female patients. There are also have some specific immune response ligand-receptor regulatory signals in male patients. Conclusion: There are significant differences in skin cell composition and cell communication patterns between acne patients and healthy people, especially reflected in gender differences. Basal cells, macrophages and endothelial cells can serve as key targets for acne treatment. The treatment methods for men and women should be more personalized.
