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

Adenine base editors (ABEs) catalyze specific A-to-G conversions at genomic sites of interest. However, ABEs also induce cytosine deamination at the target site. To reduce the cytosine editing activity, we engineered a commonly used adenosine deaminase, TadA7.10, and found that ABE7.10 with a D108Q mutation in TadA7.10 exhibited tenfold reduced cytosine deamination activity. The D108Q mutation also reduces cytosine deamination activity in two recently developed high-activity versions of ABE, ABE8e and ABE8s, and is compatible with V106W, a mutation that reduces off-target RNA editing. ABE7.10 containing a P48R mutation displayed increased cytosine deamination activity and a substantially reduced adenine editing rate, yielding a TC-specific base editing tool for TC-to-TT or TC-to-TG conversions that broadens the utility of base editors.
