FedscGen: privacy-preserving federated batch effect correction of single-cell RNA sequencing data.
Article in Genome biology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 papers.
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-seq data from clinical samples often suffer from batch effects, but data sharing is limited due to genomic privacy concerns. We present FedscGen, a privacy-preserving communication-efficient federated method built upon the scGen model, enhanced with secure multiparty computation. FedscGen supports federated training and batch effect correction workflows, including the integration of new studies. We benchmark FedscGen across diverse datasets, showing competitive performance-matching scGen on key metrics like NMI, GC, ILF1, ASW_C, kBET, and EBM on the Human Pancreas dataset. Published as a FeatureCloud app, FedscGen enables secure, real-world collaboration for scRNA-seq batch effect correction.
