Cas9 is mostly orthogonal to human systems of DNA break sensing and repair.
Article in PloS one, 2023. 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/Cas9 system is а powerful gene editing tool based on the RNA-guided cleavage of target DNA. The Cas9 activity can be modulated by proteins involved in DNA damage signalling and repair due to their interaction with double- and single-strand breaks (DSB and SSB, respectively) generated by wild-type Cas9 or Cas9 nickases. Here we address the interplay between Streptococcus pyogenes Cas9 and key DNA repair factors, including poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1 (SSB/DSB sensor), its closest homolog poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 2, Ku antigen (DSB sensor), DNA ligase I (SSB sensor), replication protein A (DNA duplex destabilizer), and Y-box binding protein 1 (RNA/DNA binding protein). None of those significantly affected Cas9 activity, while Cas9 efficiently shielded DSBs and SSBs from their sensors. Poly(ADP-ribosyl)ation of Cas9 detected for poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 2 had no apparent effect on the activity. In cellulo, Cas9-dependent gene editing was independent of poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase 1. Thus, Cas9 can be regarded as an enzyme mostly orthogonal to the natural regulation of human systems of DNA break sensing and repair.
