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

Single cell (sc) technologies mark a conceptual and methodological breakthrough in our way to study cells, the base units of life. Thanks to these technological developments, large-scale initiatives are currently ongoing aimed at mapping of all the cell types in the human body, with the ambitious aim to gain a cell-level resolution of physiological development and disease. Since its broad applicability and ease of interpretation scRNA-seq is probably the most common sc-based application. This assay uses high throughput RNA sequencing to capture gene expression profiles at the sc-level. Subsequently, under the assumption that differences in transcriptional programs correspond to distinct cellular identities,
