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

Site-directed insertion is a powerful approach for generating mutant alleles, but low efficiency and the need for customisation for each target has limited its application. To overcome this, we developed a highly efficient targeted insertional mutagenesis system, CRIMP, and an associated plasmid toolkit, CRIMPkit, that disrupts native gene expression by inducing complete transcriptional termination, generating null mutant alleles without inducing genetic compensation. The protocol results in a high frequency of integration events and can generate very early targeted insertions, during the first cell division, producing embryos with expression in one or both halves of the body plan. Fluorescent readout of integration events facilitates selection of successfully mutagenized fish and, subsequently, visual identification of heterozygous and mutant animals. Together, these advances greatly improve the efficacy of generating and studying mutant lines. The CRIMPkit contains 24 ready-to-use plasmid vectors to allow easy and complete mutagenesis of any gene in any reading frame without requiring custom sequences, modification, or subcloning.
