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 revolutionized molecular biology by guiding Cas proteins to target nucleic acid sequences using customizable guide RNAs, offering unparalleled precision and versatility. Inspired by this innovation, we developed RNA-guided green fluorescent protein (RGG), a simple and programmable platform for targeting nucleic acid. Using a streamlined click chemistry approach, known for its high efficiency and specificity, we conjugated dibenzocyclooctyne (DBCO)-modified guide nucleic acids, designed to complement target sequences, with azide-exposed proteins to construct RGG. Systematic optimization identified 30-nt RNA with 3'-DBCO modifications as the most effective configuration for RGG, enabling precise visualization of nuclear-localized RNAs, including NEAT1 and Satellite III RNA, in living cells. This establishes RGG as a customizable and efficient system for RNA imaging and molecular analysis, underscoring the potential of direct conjugation between guide nucleic acids and proteins to enable precise nucleic acid recognition and dynamic molecular modification in living cells.
