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

White spot syndrome virus (WSSV) and Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei (EHP) represent the most economically destructive pathogens in the current shrimp industry. WSSV causes white spot disease (WSD) responsible for rapid shrimp mortality, while EHP stunts growth and therefore reduces overall productivity. Despite the importance of timely disease detection, current diagnostic methods for WSSV and EHP are typically singleplex, and those offering multiplex detection face issues such as complexity, low field compatibility and/or low sensitivity. Here, we introduce an orthogonal, multiplex CRISPR-Cas assay for concomitant detection of WSSV and EHP. This method combines recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) for target DNA enrichment with Cas12a and Cas13a enzymes for fluorescent detection. This assay produces distinct fluorescent colours for different diagnostic outcomes, allowing naked eye visualisation without ambiguity. Further validation reveals that the assay detects as few as 20 and 200 copies of target DNA from EHP and WSSV, respectively, while producing no false positives with DNA from other shrimp pathogens. Moreover, the assay excellently agrees with established PCR methods in evaluation of clinical samples. Requiring only 37°C and less than an hour to complete, multiplex CRISPR-Cas assay presents a promising tool for onsite diagnostics, offering high accuracy while saving time and resources.
