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

CRISPR-Cas12e is a recently identified gene-editing tool mainly known because its relatively small size benefits cell delivery. Drastically different from Cas9, it creates a blunt-end double-strand breakage of the DNA via two cleavage sites; Cas12e produces a sticky-end double-strand breakage of the DNA through only one cleavage site in its RuvC domain, meaning two consecutive cleavage events first on the non-target strand (ntsDNA) and then the target strand (tsDNA). Though crucial for Cas12e's cleavage efficiency, the mechanism by which Cas12e loads tsDNA for the second cleavage remains elusive. Through molecular dynamics simulations and our recently matured traveling-salesman-based automated path-searching (TAPS) algorithm, we identified a series of positively charged residues (Arg856
