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

Programmed RNA editing presents an attractive therapeutic strategy for genetic disease. In this study, we developed bacterial deaminase-enabled recoding of RNA (DECOR), which employs an evolved Escherichia coli transfer RNA adenosine deaminase, TadA8e, to deposit adenosine-to-inosine editing to CRISPR-specified sites in the human transcriptome. DECOR functions in a variety of cell types, including human lung fibroblasts, and delivers on-target activity similar to ADAR-overexpressing RNA-editing platforms with 88% lower off-target effects. High-fidelity DECOR further reduces off-target effects to basal level. We demonstrate the clinical potential of DECOR by targeting Van der Woude syndrome-causing interferon regulatory factor 6 (IRF6) insufficiency. DECOR-mediated RNA editing removes a pathogenic upstream open reading frame (uORF) from the 5' untranslated region of IRF6 and rescues primary ORF expression from 12.3% to 36.5%, relative to healthy transcripts. DECOR expands the current portfolio of effector proteins and opens new territory in programmed RNA editing.
