SCCNAInfer: a robust and accurate tool to infer the absolute copy number on scDNA-seq data.
Article in Bioinformatics (Oxford, England), 2024. 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
motivationCopy number alterations (CNAs) play an important role in disease progression, especially in cancer. Single-cell DNA sequencing (scDNA-seq) facilitates the detection of CNAs of each cell that is sequenced at a shallow and uneven coverage. However, the state-of-the-art CNA detection tools based on scDNA-seq are still subject to genome-wide errors due to the wrong estimation of the ploidy.
resultsWe developed SCCNAInfer, a computational tool that utilizes the subclonal signal inside the tumor cells to more accurately infer each cell's ploidy and CNAs. Given the segmentation result of an existing CNA detection method, SCCNAInfer clusters the cells, infers the ploidy of each subclone, refines the read count by bin clustering, and accurately infers the CNAs for each cell. Both simulated and real datasets show that SCCNAInfer consistently improves upon the state-of-the-art CNA detection tools such as Aneufinder, Ginkgo, SCOPE, and SeCNV.
