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

The CRISPR (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat)/Cas9 (CRISPR-associated nuclease 9) technology enables rapid, targeted, and efficient changes in the genomes of various model organisms. The short guide RNAs (gRNAs) of the CRISPR/Cas9 system can be designed to recognize target DNA within coding regions for functional gene knockouts. Several studies have demonstrated that the CRISPR/Cas9 system efficiently and specifically targets sea urchin genes and results in expected mutant phenotypes. In addition to disrupting gene functions, modifications and additions to the Cas9 protein enable alternative activities targeted to specific sites within the genome. This includes a fusion of cytidine deaminase to Cas9 (Cas9-DA) for single nucleotide conversion in targeted sites. In this chapter, we describe detailed methods for the CRISPR/Cas9 application in sea urchin embryos, including gRNA design, in vitro synthesis of single guide RNA (sgRNA), and the usages of the CRISPR/Cas9 technology for gene knockout and single nucleotide editing. Methods for genotyping the resultant embryos are also provided for assessing efficiencies of gene editing.
