HISSTA: a human in situ single-cell transcriptome atlas.
Article in Bioinformatics (Oxford, England), 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
motivationSpatial transcriptomics holds great promise for revolutionizing biology and medicine by providing gene expression profiles with spatial information. Until recently, spatial resolution has been limited, but advances in high-throughput in situ imaging technologies now offer new opportunities by covering thousands of genes at a single-cell or even subcellular resolution, necessitating databases dedicated to comprehensive coverage and analysis with user-friendly intefaces.
resultsWe introduce the HISSTA database, which facilitates the archival and analysis of in situ transcriptome data at single-cell resolution from various human tissues. We have collected and annotated spatial transcriptome data generated by MERFISH, CosMx SMI, and Xenium techniques, encompassing 112 samples and 28 million cells across 16 tissue types from 63 studies. To decipher spatial contexts, we have implemented advanced tools for cell type annotation, spatial colocalization, spatial cellular communication, and niche analyses. Notably, all datasets and annotations are interactively accessible through Vitessce, allowing users to focus on regions of interest and examine gene expression in detail. HISSTA is a unique database designed to manage the rapidly growing dataset of in situ transcriptomes at single-cell resolution. Given its comprehensive data content and advanced analysis tools with interactive visualizations, HISSTA is poised to significantly impact cancer diagnosis, precision medicine, and digital pathology. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: HISSTA is freely accessible at https://kbds.re.kr/hissta/. The source code is available at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.14904523.
