CroCoNet: a framework for the quantitative comparison of gene regulatory networks across species.
Article in Genome biology, 2026. 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
To understand phenotypic evolution, it is essential to investigate the underlying gene regulatory networks (GRNs). However, most comparative GRN analyzes remain descriptive due to the low signal-to-noise ratio inherent in single-cell transcriptomics data. To address this, we introduce CroCoNet (Cross-species Comparison of Networks), an R-package for quantitative GRN comparison across species. CroCoNet builds comparable network modules centered on putative regulators and compares module topologies within and between species, distinguishing true evolutionary divergence from technical and biological confounders. We demonstrate its utility by comparing early neural differentiation across primates and validating results with a CRISPRi analysis of the diverged POU5F1 module.
