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 profiling protein-chromatin interactions is often constrained by complex workflows, high cost, or dependence on specialized equipment. We present indexed tagmentation-based single-cell CUT&Tag-sequencing (IT-scC&T-seq), a modular, plate-based strategy using three-round combinatorial barcoding. IT-scC&T-seq robustly profiles histone modifications and transcription factors with high specificity and throughput, supporting simultaneous analysis of multiple samples and epitopes. Notably, it enables sensitive single-cell mapping of lamina-associated domains, low-abundance chromatin features previously difficult to resolve. Applied to adult mouse mammary gland, the method reveals cell-type-specific chromatin landscapes and lineage-regulatory dynamics. Together, IT-scC&T-seq provides a scalable, cost-effective, and broadly accessible approach for high-resolution chromatin profiling.
