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 skin is the largest human organ and a site of substantial disease burden, yet its cellular and molecular organization across the body is largely undefined. Here we construct an organ-wide single-cell spatial atlas of ~1.2 million cells from normal adult human skin, resolving the location of 45 cell types across 114 samples encompassing 15 anatomic sites. We uncover site-specific stereotypic cell-type composition and their organization into ten multicellular neighborhoods, most notably a perivascular neighborhood reminiscent of skin-associated lymphoid tissue. Within this neighborhood, ligand-receptor (L-R) analyses identify a central role for tumor necrosis factor in maintaining CCL19
