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

Gene editing technology involves the modification of a specific target gene to obtain a new function or phenotype. Recent advances in clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR)-Cas-mediated technologies have provided an efficient tool for genetic engineering of cells and organisms. Here, we review the three emerging gene editing tools (ZFNs, TALENs, and CRISPR-Cas) and briefly introduce the principle, classification, and mechanisms of the CRISPR-Cas systems. Strategies for gene editing based on endogenous and exogenous CRISPR-Cas systems, as well as the novel base editor (BE), prime editor (PE), and CRISPR-associated transposase (CAST) technologies, are described in detail. In addition, we summarize recent developments in the application of CRISPR-based gene editing tools for industrial microorganism and probiotics modifications. Finally, the potential challenges and future perspectives of CRISPR-based gene editing tools are discussed.
