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 technology has profoundly transformed both genome editing and the next generation of nucleic acid detection. In this study, we characterized a Cas12a ortholog, Gs12-9 (EsoCas12a), which recognizes a broad PAM motif (NYYN, where Y denotes C or T) and maintains robust cis- and trans-cleavage activity across a wide temperature range (16–60 ℃), outperforming established Cas12a variants such as LbCas12a. Leveraging Gs12-9, we established a rapid, highly sensitive, and temperature-tolerant nucleic acid detection platform that enables precise genotyping without stringent thermal control. By integrating recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) with CRISPR/Gs12-9-mediated detection, we accurately discriminated myostatin (MSTN) knockout pigs from wild-type individuals, achieving a detection limit of 40 copies per reaction with 100% accuracy. While the MSTN knockout (KO) pig served as a proof-of-concept model in this work, the versatility of Gs12-9 supports its broader application in CRISPR-based diagnostics, including pathogen screening and genetic variant detection.
