Excess of guide RNA reduces knockin efficiency and drastically increases on-target large deletions.
Article in iScience, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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-Cas9 cleavage efficacy and accuracy are the main challenges gene editing faces, and they are particularly affected by the optimal formation of the ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complex. We used nano differential scanning fluorimetry, a label and immobilization-free assay, to demonstrate that an equimolar ratio of Cas9 and guide RNA (gRNA) is optimal for RNP complex formation. We almost achieved 50% of green fluorescent protein (GFP) to blue fluorescent protein (BFP) conversion using a biallelic homozygous GFP human induced pluripotent stem cell line, when 0.4 μM of Cas9, equimolar Cas9/gRNA ratio and 2 μM of single-stranded oligonucleotide, were used and showed that increasing Cas9/gRNA ratio did not further improve KI efficiency. Additionally, excess gRNA decreased point mutation KI efficiency in rat embryos and drastically increased the occurrence of on-target large deletions. These findings highlight the importance of CRISPR/Cas9 stoichiometric optimization to ensure efficient and accurate KI generation, which will be applicable to other
