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

Prime editing (PE) enables precise genome modification, i.e., all 12 types of base substitution, as well as designed insertion and deletion. Previously, we developed an efficient PE system using a pair of engineered pegRNAs (epegRNAs), appending an RNA pseudoknot sequence to the 3'ends of pegRNAs to enhance stability and prevent degradation of the 3'extension. Using a wild-type nSpCas9-based PE system (PE-wt) recognizing an NGG-protospacer adjacent motif (PAM) in this approach, two NGG-PAMs (NGG and CCN) adjacent to the target site are required for targeting by paired pegRNAs; however, this is not the PAM configuration available at most target sites. Using an nSpCas9-NG variant recognizing NG-PAM in PE (PE-NG) can expand applicability. Here, we compare the PE efficiency of PE-wt with paired epegRNAs targeting a distal NGG-PAM
