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

Laboratory rats and mice are representative experimental animals for models of human disease. The emergence of genome editing technologies has enabled us to produce a variety of genetically modified animals, including rats, as a means of elucidating the in vivo functions of the gene of interest and characterizing the molecular mechanisms of human disease. Several advanced techniques for knock-in methodologies in rats are currently in development, which permit researchers to introduce precise nucleotide modifications at target sites in the rat's genome. Furthermore, recent studies with knock-out rats have revealed that observed disease phenotypes are often more similar than mouse models to those of humans. In this article, we introduce the methodologies for efficient gene manipulation in rats using genome editing technologies, and describe the advances made using rats for human disease models. We also discuss the importance of gene manipulation in animal models for the better understanding of fundamental processes among different species.
