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

We introduce scSTAMP-seq (single-cell spatial transcriptomic and multiomic profiling), a modular light-encoded barcoding strategy that preserves spatial information while leveraging standard single-cell platforms. scSTAMP-seq labels live and fixed cells with cholesterol-conjugated, photocleavable hashtag oligonucleotides, followed by patterned light exposure that 'stamps' spatial coordinates onto individual cells before single-cell multiome sequencing. Here we apply scSTAMP-seq to human embryoids showing how spatial organization and epigenetic states coregulate cellular programs in heterogeneous biological systems.
