Human body single-cell atlas of three-dimensional genome organization and DNA methylation.
Article in Science (New York, N.Y.), 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
Higher-order chromatin structure and DNA methylation are critical for gene regulation, but how these vary across the human body remains unclear. We performed multiomic profiling of three-dimensional (3D) genome structure and DNA methylation for 86,689 single nuclei across 16 tissues, identifying 35 major and 206 cell subtypes. We revealed extensive changes in CG and non-CG methylation across cell types and characterized 3D chromatin structure at an unprecedented cellular resolution. Extensive discrepancies exist between cell types delineated by DNA methylation and genome structure, which indicates that the role of distinct epigenomic features in maintaining cell identity may vary by lineage. This study expands our understanding of the diversity of DNA methylation and chromatin structure and offers a reference for exploring gene regulation in human health and disease.
