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
Actinomyces are gram-positive bacteria known for their valuable secondary metabolites. Redirecting metabolic flux towards desired products in actinomycetes requires precise and dynamic regulation of gene expression. In this study, we integrated the CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) system with a cumate-inducible promoter to develop an inducible gene downregulation method in Saccharopolyspora erythraea, a prominent erythromycin-producing actinobacterium. The functionality of the cumate-inducible promoter was validated using the gusA gene as a reporter, and the successful inducible expression of the dCas9 gene was confirmed. The developed inducible CRISPRi strategy was then employed to downregulate the expression of target genes rppA in the wild-type strain NRRL2338 and sucC in the high erythromycin-producing strain E3. Through dynamic control of sucC expression, a significant enhancement in erythromycin production was achieved in strain E3. This study demonstrated the effectiveness of an inducible gene downregulation approach using CRISPRi and a cumate-inducible promoter, providing valuable insights for optimizing natural product production in actinomyces.
