Exploring retinal degenerative diseases through CRISPR-based screening.
Review in Molecular biology reports, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
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
The CRISPR (Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats)/Cas9 (CRISPR-associated protein9) system has emerged as a powerful genetic tool, gaining global recognition as a versatile and efficient gene-editing technique. Its transformation into a high-throughput research platform, CRISPR Screening, has demonstrated wide applicability across various fields such as cancer biology, virology, and drug target discovery, resulting in significant advances. However, its potential in studying retinal degenerative diseases remains largely unexplored, despite the urgent need for effective treatments arising from an incomplete understanding of disease mechanisms. This review aims to present a comprehensive overview of the evolution and current state of CRISPR tools and CRISPR screening methodologies. Noteworthy pioneering studies utilizing these technologies are discussed, alongside experimental design guidelines, including positive and negative selection strategies and delivery methods for sgRNAs (single guide RNAs) and Cas proteins. Furthermore, we explore existing in vitro models appropriate for CRISPR screening in retinal research and identify relevant research questions that could be addressed through this approach. It is anticipated that this review will stimulate innovation in retinal research, facilitating a deeper comprehension of retinal pathophysiology and paving the way for groundbreaking therapeutic interventions and enhanced patient outcomes in the management of retinal degenerative disorders.
