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

The intestinal epithelium plays a critical role in health and disease, yet the impact of microenvironmental cues in diseased contexts, such as inflammatory bowel disease (IBD), remains poorly defined. To address this gap, we first benchmarked human colonic organoid injury models against IBD tissue and established a disease-relevant model of inflammation using inflammatory cytokines. Using this system, we built a dictionary of epithelial responses to 79 secreted niche factors at single cell resolution via donor-pooled, multiplexed single cell RNA-sequencing. The comprehensive nature of our atlas allowed us to map relationships between perturbations, infer the function of less characterized ligands, and identify cell type-specific perturbed pathways. Finally, we established the relevance of organoid-derived gene programs by mapping them to single cell and spatial atlases of human IBD tissue. Our resource offers a global view of epithelial responses to microenvironmental cues, offering insights into epithelial homeostasis and repair mechanisms in IBD.
