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

CRISPR-Cas9 and Cas12a are widely used for genome editing, but their large size limits delivery efficiency. Compact Cas12f proteins offer delivery advantages but suffer from low activity. To address this limitation, we engineered an enhanced Cas12f system (exoCasMINI) by fusing T5 exonuclease to CasMINI, achieving 1.1- 21.1-fold higher editing efficiency while maintaining specificity. exoCasMINI matched the activity of
