Single-cell signatures identify microenvironment factors in tumors associated with patient outcomes.
Article in Cell reports methods, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
The cellular components of tumors and their microenvironment play pivotal roles in tumor progression, patient survival, and the response to cancer treatments. Unveiling a comprehensive cellular profile within bulk tumors via single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) data is crucial, as it unveils intrinsic tumor cellular traits that elude identification through conventional cancer subtyping methods. Our contribution, scBeacon, is a tool that derives cell-type signatures by integrating and clustering multiple scRNA-seq datasets to extract signatures for deconvolving unrelated tumor datasets on bulk samples. Through the employment of scBeacon on the The Cancer Genome Atlas (TCGA) cohort, we find cellular and molecular attributes within specific tumor categories, many with patient outcome relevance. We developed a tumor cell-type map to visually depict the relationships among TCGA samples based on the cell-type inferences.
