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-Cas systems are RNA-guided nucleases that provide adaptive immune protection in bacteria and archaea against intruding genomic materials. Cas9, a type-II CRISPR effector protein, is widely used for gene editing applications since a single guide RNA can direct Cas9 to cleave specific genomic targets. The conformational changes associated with RNA/DNA binding are being modulated to develop Cas9 variants with reduced off-target cleavage. Previously, we showed that proline substitutions in the arginine-rich bridge helix (BH) of
