Establishment of Cre/LoxP-mediated multifunctional reporter knock-in rats with the CRISPR system.
Article in PloS one, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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.
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
Rats and mice are essential experimental animals in preclinical research, serving as models for various human diseases and contributing significantly to drug development. Rats offer distinct advantages over mice due to their larger size, which allows for more complex surgical procedures, repeated blood sampling, or sophisticated behavioral analysis. However, unlike the case with mice, genetically modified rat lines for achieving complex experimental objectives-such as tissue-specific gene knockout or visualization of specific cell populations-are still limited. We here established LoxP-mediated multifunctional reporter KI rats, enabling us to evaluate fluorescence, bioluminescence, and cell-killing assays simultaneously with only one gene-modified rat line. CRISPR/Cas12a, also known as CRISPR/Cpf1, was successfully used to insert the Cre sequence into a target locus to generate Cre driver rats. These results will contribute to the application of gene-modified rats for a more comprehensive understanding of physiology, and for extrapolation of their capabilities in preclinical research.
