Cell-type-specific enrichment of somatic aneuploidy in the mammalian brain.
Article in Neuron, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Somatic mutations alter the genomes of a subset of an individual's brain cells, impacting gene regulation and contributing to disease processes. Mosaic single-nucleotide variants have been characterized with single-cell resolution in the brain, but we have limited information about large-scale structural variation such as whole-chromosome duplication or loss. We used a dataset of over 415,000 single-cell DNA methylation and chromatin conformation profiles from the adult mouse brain to comprehensively identify and characterize aneuploid cells. Somatic trisomy events were strongly enriched on chromosome 16, which is syntenic with human chromosome 21. We also observed a specific enrichment of chromosome gain and loss events in specific cell types, including Pons neurons and oligodendrocyte precursor cells. Chromosome 16 trisomy occurred in multiple cell types and across brain regions, suggesting that nondisjunction is a recurrent feature of somatic structural variation in the brain.
