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-nucleotide-variant (SNV) clone assignment of high-covariance single-cell lineage tracing data remains a challenge due to hierarchical mutation structure and many missing signals. We develop SNPmanifold, a Python package that learns an SNV embedding manifold using a binomial variational autoencoder to give an efficient and interpretable cell-cell distance metric. We demonstrate that SNPmanifold is a suitable tool for analysis of complex, single-cell SNV mutation data, such as in the context of demultiplexing a large number of donors and somatic lineage tracing via mitochondrial SNV data and can reveal insights into single-cell clonality and lineages more accurately and comprehensively than existing methods.
