1 · What the graph read from it

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.

2 · The registry

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

Paired single-cell and spatially resolved transcriptomics (SRT) data supplement each other, providing in-depth insights into biological processes and disease mechanisms. Previous SRT databases have limitations in curating sufficient single-cell and SRT pairs (SC-SP pairs) and providing real-time heuristic analysis, which hinder the effort to uncover potential biological insights. Here, we developed Pairpot (http://pairpot.bioxai.cn), a database tailored for paired single-cell and SRT data with real-time heuristic analysis. Pairpot curates 99 high-quality pairs including 1,425,656 spots from 299 datasets, and creates the association networks. It constructs the curated pairs by integrating multiple slices and establishing potential associations between single-cell and SRT data. On this basis, Pairpot adopts semi-supervised learning that enables real-time heuristic analysis for SC-SP pairs where Lasso-View refines the user-selected SRT domains within milliseconds, Pair-View infers cell proportions of spots based on user-selected cell types in real-time and Layer-View displays SRT slices using a 3D hierarchical layout. Experiments demonstrated Pairpot's efficiency in identifying heterogeneous domains and cell proportions.
