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 technology is revolutionizing genetic engineering by enabling precise genome modifications across a wide range of organisms, particularly in livestock. This review focuses on livestock improvement and the most recent transformative developments in the application of CRISPR-based genome editing techniques. We analyzed productivity improvements achieved by editing growth factor genes, immunogenic resistance enhancement through the editing of immune loci, and ecological footprint reduction for sustainability. This review also addresses the intricate ethical and regulatory issues posed by the application of CRISPR technology in animal breeding, including concerns about animal welfare violations, unintended off-target effects, and impacts on public perception. Furthermore, we discuss key untapped CRISPR targets in livestock genetics enabled by precision gene editing, the emerging integration of CRISPR with artificial intelligence, and the need for collaboration to address complex ethical and regulatory challenges related to applying CRISPR in animal breeding.
