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

β-thalassemia/HbE results from mutations in the β-globin locus that impede the production of functional adult hemoglobin. Base editors (BEs) could facilitate the correction of the point mutations with minimal or no indel creation, but its efficiency and bystander editing for the correction of β-thalassemia mutations in coding and non-coding regions remains unexplored. Here, we screened BE variants in HUDEP-2 cells for their ability to correct a spectrum of β-thalassemia mutations that were integrated into the genome as fragments of
