Aging-TCA: a cross-species single-cell transcriptomic atlas for studying testicular aging.
Article in BMC genomics, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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.
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
The testis, with the highest number of transcriptionally active genes among human tissues, offers a unique window into how aging affects complex gene regulation. Recent advancements in single-cell RNA sequencing have enabled multi-species studies of aging-related transcriptome changes in testes. However, a comprehensive aging-related cross-species platform for analyzing testicular single-cell transcriptomes remains absent. To address this gap, we developed Aging-TCA (Aging-related Testicular Cell Atlas, available at http://tca.xielab.tech/)— a comprehensive online platform containing aging-related testicular single cell and spatial transcriptome profiles from human, cynomolgus monkey, mouse, and zebrafish across 89 samples and over 460, 000 testicular cells, nuclei or spots. Aging-TCA provides versatile tools for temporal and spatial analyzing testicular aging, including aging-related testicular gene expression visualization, cell-cell communication comparisons, cell-trajectory analysis, gene regulatory network analysis, testicular cell type auto-identification, time-series analysis, and spatial transcriptome comparisons. In summary, we provide a novel platform Aging-TCA for advancing cross-species research into testicular aging, facilitating future investigations in this field.
