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

Genome editing techniques are considered to be one of the most challenging yet efficient tools for assisting therapeutic approaches. Several studies have focused on the development of novel methods to improve the efficiency of gene editing, as well as minimise their off‑target effects. Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)‑associated protein (Cas9) is a tool that has revolutionised genome editing technologies. New applications of CRISPR/Cas9 in a broad range of diseases have demonstrated its efficiency and have been used in ex vivo models of somatic and pluripotent stem cells, as well as in in vivo animal models, and may eventually be used to correct defective genes. The focus of the present review was the recent applications of CRISPR/Cas9 and its contribution to the treatment of challenging human diseases, such as various types of cancer, neurodegenerative diseases and a broad spectrum of other disorders. CRISPR technology is a novel method for disease treatment, enhancing the effectiveness of drugs and improving the development of personalised medicine.
