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

Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats and associated Cas proteins (CRISPR-Cas) are the only known adaptive immune system in prokaryotes. CRISPR-Cas system provides sequence-specific immunity against invasion by foreign genetic elements. It carries out its functions by incorporating a small part of the invading DNA sequence, termed as spacer into the CRISPR array. Although the CRISPR-Cas systems are mainly responsible for adaptive immune functions, their alternative role in the gene regulation, bacterial pathophysiology, virulence, and evolution has started to unravel. In several species, these systems are revealed to regulate the processes beyond adaptive immunity by employing various components of CRISPR-Cas machinery, independently or in combination. The molecular mechanisms entailing the regulatory processes are not clear in most of the instances. In this review, we have discussed some well-known and some recently established noncanonical functions of CRISPR-Cas system and its fast-extending applications in other biological processes.
