Generation of NOD SCID mice with near-complete deletions of Il2rg and Prkdc for human cancer and HSC engraftment.

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
Immunodeficient mouse models are invaluable tools for preclinical research, particularly for cancer therapies and studies of the human immune system. Notably, strains with combined Prkdc (scid) and Il2rg (null) mutations-such as NOG and NSG mice- are widely used due to their profound immunodeficiency, allowing efficient engraftment of various human cells. However, these models were generated by disrupting the Il2rg gene through replacement with a neomycin resistance (Neo) cassette in embryonic stem cells. Incomplete excision of this cassette can inadvertently alter the expression of neighboring genes, thereby introducing potential confounding variables. In addition, they may still express mutant mRNAs that escape nonsense-mediated decay (NMD) and/or produce truncated proteins with residual activity, potentially compromising the interpretation of experimental outcomes. To address this, we developed the N2G mouse strain (NOD-2-Genes KO) where almost all genomic loci of both Prkdc and Il2rg genes are deleted via CRISPR/Cas9 genome editing. N2G mice exhibited tumor growth comparable to NOG mice following the transplantation with several human cancer cell lines. Moreover, human CD34
