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

summaryIdentifying cell states associated with disease progression or experimental perturbations from single-cell Assay for Transposase Accessible Chromatin using sequencing (scATAC-seq) data is critical for unraveling disease pathogenesis. However, the high dimensionality, extreme sparsity, and nearly binary nature of scATAC-seq data pose significant challenges. Here, we present reDA, a cluster-free computational framework that performs differential abundance testing based on the random walk with restart. Through comprehensive experiments on simulated and real datasets, reDA outperforms six baseline methods, demonstrating superior accuracy, computational efficiency, and the ability to capture disease-specific molecular signatures. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION: The reDA along with detailed documentation is freely available at https://github.com/Jinsl-lab/reDA. It can be seamlessly integrated into existing scATAC-seq analysis workflows.
