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 flexibility of microbes to undergo or adapt to the changes in their physiology and genotypical traits has enabled the microbes acquiring resistance to latest or recently discovered drugs which have consequently led to the menace of multidrug resistance (MDR). There is a surge in the discovery of novel antibiotics to counter the rising MDR phenomena, and in such a quest, for investigating an efficient alternative mechanism or compound to combat MDR, Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) has piqued the interests of the researchers across the globe. CRISPR-Cas9 technology is a genome-editing tool with successful widespread applications in cell lines, plants, animals, and even in human clinical trials, and it is seriously being considered as a potential candidate for countering MDR. This review encompasses the broad scope of CRISPR-Cas9 along with its various variations, underlying principles, mechanisms, as well as applications. Furthermore, the implications of recent advancements in various disciplines are highlighted to enhance the applicability of this technique. Consequently, its research gaps and challenges are also identified so that they can be addressed in the possible future thereby further expanding the lore of CRISPR-Cas9 technique.
