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

Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play a crucial role in normal and dysregulated hematopoiesis. However, the functional repertoire of lncRNAs across various hematopoietic cell types remains elusive. In this study, we constructed a comprehensive single-cell lncRNA atlas containing 207,113 cells, spanning hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs) to differentiated blood cells, by integrating nine single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) datasets derived from 30 healthy donors. The hematopoietic hierarchy based on lncRNA expression was highly consistent with that based on protein-coding genes. We identified 3,463 lineage-specific lncRNAs in HSPCs, neutrophils, monocytes, B cells, and T/natural killer cells; 23 of 30 selected lncRNAs were experimentally validated. Importantly, upregulated lncRNAs in pediatric patients with B cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, T cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia, and acute myeloid leukemia were primarily associated with oxygen response and immune regulation, indicating the potential contribution of lncRNAs to leukemogenesis. In conclusion, our results portray the landscape of lncRNAs in the hematopoietic system, revealing the functional significance of lncRNAs in both normal and abnormal hematopoiesis and providing potential therapeutic targets for the clinical treatment of leukemia.
