Single-nucleus multiome analysis in the human prefrontal cortex identifies gene expression and cis-regulatory elements associated with aging.
Article in Cell reports, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Aging is an unavoidable part of life, but gaps still remain in the understanding of age-associated molecular changes within the brain. We generated single-nucleus multiome ATAC plus gene expression profiles in 357 human brain samples from European and African admixed ancestry individuals ranging from 15 to 100 years old. The final dataset consisted of paired transcriptomic and epigenomic profiles for over 1.5 million cells. These were classified into seven major cell types using canonical marker genes, and each type was analyzed for features associated with aging. Open chromatin regions were correlated with transcription factor expression to identify age-associated regulatory networks, and co-accessibility identified linked peaks and genes, revealing a catalog of putative cis-regulatory elements by cell type. These multiomic data serve as a resource to characterize transcriptional regulation by cell type and generate hypotheses about how these distinct profiles both influence and are influenced by aging and disease.
