A physically inspired approach to coarse-graining transcriptomes reveals the dynamics of aging.
Article in PloS one, 2024. 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
Single-cell RNA sequencing has enabled the study of aging at a molecular scale. While substantial progress has been made in measuring age-related gene expression, the underlying patterns and mechanisms of aging transcriptomes remain poorly understood. To address this gap, we propose a physics-inspired, data-analysis approach to extract additional insights from single-cell RNA sequencing data. By considering the genome as a many-body interacting system, we leverage central idea of the Renormalization Group to construct an approach to hierarchically describe aging across a spectrum of scales for the gene expresion. This framework provides a quantitative language to study the multiscale patterns of aging transcriptomes. Overall, our study demonstrates the value of leveraging theoretical physics concepts like the Renormalization Group to gain new biological insights from complex high-dimensional single-cell data.
