Cross-species comparison of airway epithelium transcriptomics.
Article in Heliyon, 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
Studies of lung transcriptomics across species are essential for understanding the complex biology and disease mechanisms of this vital organ. Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) has emerged as a key tool for understanding cell dynamics across various species. However, comprehensive cross-species comparisons are limited. Therefore, the aims of this study was to investigate the transcriptomic similarities and differences in lung cells across four species-humans, monkeys, mice, and rats-in healthy and asthma conditions using scRNA-seq. The results revealed significant transcriptomic similarities between monkeys and humans and significant cross-species conservation of cell-specific marker genes, transcription factors (TFs), and biological pathways. Additionally, we explored sex differences, identifying distinct sex-specific expression patterns that may influence disease susceptibility. These insights refine our understanding of the mechanism underlying airway cell biology across species and have important implications for studying lung diseases, particularly the mechanisms of mucus clearance in asthma.
