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

Type I, II, and V CRISPR-Cas systems are RNA-guided dsDNA targeting defense mechanisms found in bacteria and archaea. During CRISPR interference, Cas effectors use CRISPR-derived RNAs (crRNAs) as guides to bind complementary sequences in foreign dsDNA, leading to the cleavage and destruction of the DNA target. Mutations within the target or in the protospacer adjacent motif can reduce the level of CRISPR interference, although the level of defect is dependent on the type and position of the mutation, as well as the guide sequence of the crRNA. Given the importance of Cas effectors in host defense and for biotechnology tools, there has been considerable interest in developing sensitive methods for detecting Cas effector activity through CRISPR interference. In this chapter, we describe an in vivo fluorescence-based method for monitoring plasmid interference in Escherichia coli. This approach uses a green fluorescent protein reporter to monitor varying plasmid levels within bacterial colonies, or to measure the rate of plasmid-loss in bacterial populations over time. We demonstrate the use of this simple plasmid-loss assay for both chromosomally integrated and plasmid-borne CRISPR-Cas systems.
