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 ease of use and robustness of genome editing by CRISPR/Cas9 has led to successful use of gene knockout zebrafish for disease modeling. However, it still remains a challenge to precisely edit the zebrafish genome to create single-nucleotide substitutions, which account for ~60% of human disease-causing mutations. Recently developed base editing nucleases provide an excellent alternate to CRISPR/Cas9-mediated homology dependent repair for generation of zebrafish with point mutations. A new set of cytosine base editors, termed BE4max and AncBE4max, demonstrated improved base editing efficiency in mammalian cells but have not been evaluated in zebrafish. Therefore, we undertook this study to evaluate their efficiency in converting C:G to T:A base pairs in zebrafish by somatic and germline analysis using highly active sgRNAs to
