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 interference (CRISPRi) is a robust gene silencing technique that is ideal for targeting essential and conditionally essential (CE) genes. CRISPRi is especially valuable for investigating gene function in pathogens such as P. aeruginosa where essential and CE genes underlie clinically important phenotypes such as antibiotic susceptibility and virulence. To facilitate the use of CRISPRi in diverse bacteria-including P. aeruginosa-we developed a suite of modular, mobilizable, and integrating vectors we call, "Mobile-CRISPRi." We further optimized Mobile-CRISPRi for use in P. aeruginosa mouse models of acute lung infection by expressing the CRISPRi machinery at low levels constitutively, enabling partial knockdown of essential and CE genes without the need for an exogenous inducer. Here, we describe protocols for creating Mobile-CRISPRi knockdown strains and testing their phenotypes in a mouse pneumonia model of P. aeruginosa infection. In addition, we provide comprehensive guide RNA designs to target genes in common laboratory strains of P. aeruginosa and other Pseudomonas species.
