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-cell profiling of T cell state with immune repertoire is critical for understanding heterogenous T cell phenotypes and responses to antigen, however, existing technologies struggle to generate this information at sufficient throughput to match biological complexity. We present "REFLEX", a novel single-cell method enabling highly scalable, cost-efficient, multiomic profiling with paired-chain TCR sequencing. REFLEX utilizes in-situ reverse transcription with integrated sample multiplexing barcodes in a way that merges seamlessly with the commonly used 10x FLEX platform to allow capture of TCR sequences at unprecedented scale and depth. We profile >2 million cells from CMV-peptide-pulsed T cell expansions, capturing TCR sequences and rich multiomic information from 1.4M T cells, identifying many putative novel CMV reactive clonotypes and illustrating the scale and transformative impact on our understanding of T cell mediated adaptive immunity achievable with REFLEX.
