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 allele-specific expression (ASE) provides valuable insights into gene regulatory mechanisms. However, its utility is limited by the lack of dedicated computational tools. We present DAESC + , a dual-module end-to-end software package for the processing and analysis of single-cell ASE. The preprocessing module, DAESC-P, is a user-friendly bioinformatics pipeline to obtain ASE counts from multiplexed scRNA-seq data. The analysis module, DAESC-GPU, is a scalable tool for differential ASE analysis powered by graphics processing units (GPUs). We demonstrated that DAESC-P is more accurate than the existing SALSA pipeline. DAESC-GPU is dozens of times faster than our previous method (DAESC) and scalable to over a million cells. Applying DAESC + to a subset of the OneK1K cohort, we identified 15 genes exhibiting differential regulatory patterns between naïve and central memory CD4 + T cells, and 2 genes between naïve and memory B cells.
