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

The widely used clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated nuclease (Cas) system is thought to have evolved from IS200/IS605 transposons. TnpB proteins, encoded by one type of IS200/IS605 transposon, are considered to be the evolutionary ancestors of Cas12 nucleases, which have been engineered to function as RNA-guided DNA endonucleases for genome editing in bacteria and human cells. TnpB nucleases, which are smaller than Cas nucleases, have been engineered for use in genome editing in animal systems, but the feasibility of this approach in plants remained unknown. Here, we obtained stably transformed genome-edited mutants in rice ( Supplementary Information: The online version contains supplementary material available at 10.1007/s42994-024-00172-6.
