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

Tomato brown rugose fruit virus (ToBRFV) is a single-stranded positive-sense RNA virus that targets tomato and pepper plants and is causing significant damage to crops in some regions of the world. ToBRFV is a highly contagious virus that is stable and rapidly spreads by mechanical methods and seeds. As a result, it may spread both locally and over long distances, and it is now recognized as a pandemic in plants. This study investigates the effectiveness of the systems CRISPR-Cas12a and CRISPR-Cas9, in conjugation with recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA), to detect ToBRFV in tomato plant samples collected from the field. The trans-cleavage activity of both nucleases, Cas12a and Cas9, was exploited to process a probe labelled with fluorescein and biotin to be resolved on a lateral flow device, thereby enabling a visual readout. We were able to detect the RNA genome of the virus in about 1 h at a low constant temperature. These results could pave way to offer a rapid, sensitive, and specific method for on-site detection of ToBRFV.
