CRISPR-Cas13-Mediated Knockdown of Regulator of G-Protein Signaling 8 (RGS8) Does Not Affect Purkinje Cell Dendritic Development.
Article in Frontiers in cell and developmental biology, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
CRISPR-Cas13 technology is rapidly evolving as it is a very specific tool for RNA editing and interference. Since there are no significant off-target effects via the Cas13-mediated method, it is a promising tool for studying gene function in differentiating neurons. In this study, we designed two crRNA targeting regulator of G-protein signaling 8 (RGS8), which is a signaling molecule associated with spinocerebellar ataxias. Using CRISPR-Cas13 technology, we found that both of crRNAs could specifically achieve RGS8 knockdown. By observing and comparing the dendritic growth of Purkinje cells, we found that CRISPR-Cas13-mediated RGS8 knockdown did not significantly affect Purkinje cell dendritic development. We further tested the role of RGS8 by classical RNAi. Again, the results of the RNAi-mediated RGS8 knockdown showed that reduced RGS8 expression did not significantly affect the dendritic growth of Purkinje cells. This is the first example of CRISPR-Cas13-mediated gene function study in Purkinje cells and establishes CRISPR-Cas13-mediated knockdown as a reliable method for studying gene function in primary neurons.
