MotivationSingle-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) datasets have been widely used to identify the cell types and marker genes with pivotal roles in driving pathogenesis and progression of auto-immune diseases. Comparative analysis of different cell types or diseases across multiple scRNA-seq datasets can reveal the homogeneous and heterogeneous pathogenesis, and a comprehensive web-based comparison tool that could streamline this process is not yet available. ResultsWe introduce scCompare, a web-based platform for scRNA-seq comparisons in autoimmune diseases. scCompare includes 2,125 differential gene lists from 100 scRNA-seq datasets in 22 auto-immune diseases and a query system supporting 170 standardized keywords from four attributes (disease, cell type, tissue, and treatment). scCompare also provides three modules enabling several comparative analysis and visualization options. geneQuery supports comparisons of queried genes across differential gene lists identified from multiple scRNA-seq datasets. DEGEnricher performs cell-type-specific enrichment analysis across studies based on a user-input gene list. DEGCompare allows interactive comparisons of multiple differential gene lists of many studies and performs pathway enrichment analyses. Using two case studies as examples, we demonstrated that scCompare represents a unique platform for biologists to identify, compare and validate the pathogenesis at the single-cell levels among auto-immune diseases. Availability and implementationscCompare is freely available at https://sccompare.shinyapps.io/main/. The source code is available at https://github.com/abbviegrc/scCompare.

"Similar papers" are the closest papers from that journal in the model's embedding space. They show what the match is built on, but the ranking comes mostly from a classifier over the whole training set, not from these examples alone.
