Primed CRISPR DNA uptake in Pyrococcus furiosus.
Article in Nucleic acids research, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 18 papers.
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.
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
CRISPR-Cas adaptive immune systems are used by prokaryotes to defend against invaders like viruses and other mobile genetic elements. Immune memories are stored in the form of 'spacers' which are short DNA sequences that are captured from invaders and added to the CRISPR array during a process called 'adaptation'. Spacers are transcribed and the resulting CRISPR (cr)RNAs assemble with different Cas proteins to form effector complexes that recognize matching nucleic acid and destroy it ('interference'). Adaptation can be 'naïve', i.e. independent of any existing spacer matches, or it can be 'primed', i.e. spurred by the crRNA-mediated detection of a complete or partial match to an invader sequence. Here we show that primed adaptation occurs in Pyrococcus furiosus. Although P. furiosus has three distinct CRISPR-Cas interference systems (I-B, I-A and III-B), only the I-B system and Cas3 were necessary for priming. Cas4, which is important for selection and processing of new spacers in naïve adaptation, was also essential for priming. Loss of either the I-B effector proteins or Cas3 reduced naïve adaptation. However, when Cas3 and all crRNP genes were deleted, uptake of correctly processed spacers was observed, indicating that none of these interference proteins are necessary for naïve adaptation.
