Moderated designs can balance between batch-effect mitigation and cell loss due to hashtag-assisted pooling in single-cell experiments.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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
Minimizing experimental noise is integral to robust data generation in single-cell science. Experimental processing of different samples as a single pool, made possible by hashtag-assisted pooling, helps minimize batch-effects, but the computational demultiplexing of the data can also lead to loss of cells whose hashtags cannot be resolved accurately. Here, we examine four alternate experimental designs that could be used instead of a single-pool approach and quantify the batch effects as well as cell loss in each case. While a reference design offers the best performance, this study can help individual investigators choose one suited for their biological questions.
