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

The CRISPR-Cas system has become a worldwide genome editing tool for various organisms. Its precision and efficiency have facilitated basic research, drug discovery and therapeutic interventions. In contrast to other genome editing agents, CRISPR-Cas is modulated by a short guide RNA. Due to its simplicity, CRISPR-Cas is recognized as the best candidate for multiplexed genome editing. With simultaneous targeting, efficient knockout of genes with large deletions is possible. In addition, CRISPR-Cas can induce complex structural variations, such as inversions, translocations and duplications. Moreover, by utilizing engineered CRISPR-Cas proteins specialized for direct repression or activation of gene expression, one can perform multiplexed epigenetic editing. Lastly, multiplexed targeting enables killing of specific types of cells by accumulating stress mediated by simultaneous DNA damages. Here we discuss how CRISPR-based editing technologies for multiple targets are applied in recent studies.
