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

High-sensitivity and high-specificity biodetection is critical for advancing applications in life sciences, biosafety, food safety, and environmental monitoring. CRISPR/Cas systems have emerged as transformative tools in biosensing due to their unparalleled specificity, programmability, and unique enzymatic activities. They exhibit two key cleavage behaviors: precise ON-target cleavage guided by specific protospacers, which ensures accurate target recognition, and bystander cleavage activity triggered upon target binding, which enables robust signal amplification. These properties make CRISPR/Cas systems highly versatile for designing biosensors for ultra-sensitive detection. This review comprehensively explores recent advancements in CRISPR/Cas system-based biosensors, highlighting their impact on improving biosensing performance. We discuss the integration of CRISPR/Cas systems with diverse signal readout mechanisms, including electrochemical, fluorescent, colorimetric, surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS), and so on. Additionally, we examine the development of integrated biosensing systems, such as microfluidic devices and portable biosensors, which leverage CRISPR/Cas technology for point-of-care testing (POCT) and high-throughput analysis. Furthermore, we identify unresolved challenges, aiming to inspire innovative solutions and accelerate the translation of these technologies into practical applications for diagnostics, food, and environment safety.
