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 clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeat (CRISPR)-Cas9 system from Streptococcus pyogenes has been widely deployed as a tool for bacterial strain construction. Conventional CRISPR-Cas9 editing strategies require design and molecular cloning of an appropriate guide RNA (gRNA) to target genome cleavage and a repair template for introduction of the desired site-specific genome modification. Here, we present a streamlined method that leverages the existing collection of nearly 4,000 Bacillus subtilis strains (the BKE collection) with individual genes replaced by an integrated erythromycin (
