Defining the marker and developmental trajectory of myeloid-derived suppressor cells in aging by single-cell transcriptomics.
Article in npj aging, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs) are recognized as a key mediator of immunosuppression in aging, which induce immunosenescence and increase elderly people's susceptibility to infections, cancers, autoimmune diseases, and degenerative diseases. However, the commonly used MDSC markers overlap with those defining healthy and normal neutrophils or monocytes, which makes it challenging to distinguish MDSCs from their myeloid counterparts, and hampers deeper understanding of the pathophysiological functions of MDSCs. In this study, we compared MDSCs from aged mice to young controls using single-cell RNA sequencing. We established MDSC-specific gene signature, which revealed the general characteristics of MDSCs during aging, and thus facilitating distinguishing them from normal myeloid cells. Experimental study revealed that CD300c may serve as a specific marker for improved detection and enrichment of MDSCs in aging. CD11b
