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

Genetically engineered mouse models (GEMMs) are crucial for investigating disease mechanisms, developing therapeutic strategies, and advancing fundamental biological research. While CRISPR gene editing has greatly facilitated the creation of these models, existing techniques still present technical challenges and efficiency limitations. Here, we establish a CRISPR-VLP-induced targeted mutagenesis (CRISPR-VIM) strategy, enabling precise genome editing by co-culturing zygotes with virus-like particle (VLP)-delivered gene editing ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) without requiring physical manipulation or causing cellular damage. We generate Plin1- and Tyr-knockout mice through VLP-based SpCas9 or adenine base editor (ABE)/sgRNA RNPs and characterize their phenotype and germline transmission. Additionally, we demonstrate cytosine base editor (CBE)/sgRNA-based C-to-T substitution or SpCas9/sgRNA-based knock-in using VLPs. This method further simplifies and accelerates GEMM generation without specialized techniques or equipment. Consequently, the CRISPR-VIM method can facilitate mouse modeling and be applied in various research fields.
