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 vagus nerve is a central component of the parasympathetic nervous system, innervating multiple abdominal organs to monitor and regulate their function. Vagal sensory neuron cell bodies reside in the nodose ganglia, but their molecular diversity and spatial organization remain incompletely defined. Here, we generated and integrated single-nucleus RNA sequencing (snRNA-seq) data with multiple published datasets to construct a unified atlas of 106,436 cells and combined this with spatial transcriptomics to create a single-cell and spatial map of the mouse nodose ganglion (NodoMap). We identify 21 neuronal subtypes and multiple non-neuronal populations, revealing subtype-specific gene expression differences between left and right ganglia and transcriptional responses to fasting. Spatial analysis shows intermingled neuronal populations with distinct cellular neighborhoods. Together, NodoMap provides a high-resolution resource for dissecting vagal sensory circuits and identifying molecular targets involved in energy homeostasis and metabolic disease.
