Disentangling transcriptomic heterogeneity within the human subgenual anterior cingulate cortex.

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 subgenual anterior cingulate cortex (sgACC) is a critical site for understanding the neural correlates of affect and emotion. While the activity of the sgACC is functionally homogenous, it is comprised of multiple Brodmann Areas (BAs) that possess different cytoarchitectures. In some sgACC BAs, Layer 5 is sublaminated into L5a and L5b which has implications for its projection targets. To understand how the transcriptional profile differs between the BAs, layers, and sublayers of human sgACC, we collected layer strips using laser capture microdissection followed by RNA sequencing. We found no significant differences in transcript expression in these specific cortical layers between BAs within the sgACC. In contrast, we identified striking differences between Layers 3 and 5a or 5b that were concordant across sgACC BAs. We found that sublayers 5a and 5b were transcriptionally similar. Pathway analyses of L3 and L5 revealed overlapping biological processes related to synaptic function. However, L3 was enriched for pathways related to cell-to-cell junction and dendritic spines whereas L5 was enriched for pathways related to brain development and presynaptic function, indicating potential functional differences across layers. Our study provides important insight into normative transcriptional features of the sgACC.
