Using Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats for Recombinant Biosynthesis of Antimicrobial Peptides as Anti-COVID-19 Agents.
Article in ACS pharmacology & translational science, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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.
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 SARS-CoV-2 pandemic has caused the death of 5.5 million people and the infection of more than 323 million people as of January 2022. The remarkable increase in pathogenicity and virulence might have occurred as a result of viral RNA mutations. To date, few antiviral drugs have been authorized for emergency use, but not yet approved, to treat mild to moderate COVID-19, with serious drawbacks and side effects. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) play an important role in the host's innate and adaptive immune system against a wide range of microbial infections. Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) is thought to be used to increase the recombinant biosynthesis of AMPs. There have been studies that reported the production of AMPs using CRISPR. Therefore, CRISPR is expected to play an important role in the production of AMPs as next-generation, safe, affordable, and efficient antiviral drugs in general and for the treatment of COVID-19 in particular, in addition to AMPs being efficient immunomodulators.
