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

CRISPR-interference (CRISPRi) is a powerful genetic tool with wide application in bacteria. In this work a single plasmid system is presented which expresses deactivated Cas9 and a short guide RNA sequence from separate inducible promoters, enabling up to 40-fold repression of target genes with minimal leaky repression in the uninduced state. The plasmid is designed for rapid spacer insertion with easy screening for correct clones, and a simple one-day protocol with >99.9% assembly efficiency is described. This plasmid is made available to the research community with a view to facilitating wider use of CRISPRi in bacterial systems.
