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

Candida albicans is an opportunistic fungal pathogen responsible for significant disease and mortality. Absent complete mating and other convenient methods, dissection of its virulence factors relies on robust tools to delete, complement, and otherwise modify genes of interest in this diploid organism. Here we describe the design principles and use of CRISPR associated nuclease 9 (Cas9) and single-guide RNAs transiently expressed from PCR cassettes to modify genes of interest, generating homozygous mutants in a single transformation step. © 2021 Wiley Periodicals LLC. Basic Protocol 1: PCR amplification of CRISPR components Basic Protocol 2: Transformation of Candida albicans Basic Protocol 3: Selecting and genotyping transformants Alternate Protocol 1: Deletion with recyclable markers by CRISPR induced marker excision (CRIME) Alternate Protocol 2: Knock-in and combining multiple cassettes with overlapping homology.
