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

Motivation: Post-translational modifications (PTMs) are critical to protein function, yet the function of most known modification sites remains uncharacterized. CRISPR-mediated phenotypic screens using base editors offer a powerful approach to dissecting PTM function at scale. However, existing sgRNA design tools for base editing applications are DNA-centric and lack the throughput required to integrate seamlessly with mass-spectrometry-based proteomics experimental outputs. Results: We introduce protein editing in R, PrEditR, an open-source, protein-centric tool for high-throughput sgRNA design for custom base editor screens. PrEditR enables users to designate specific amino acid residues in proteins and design protospacer sequences to target the endogenous gene to install missense mutations via base editors. Availability and Implementation: PrEditR is available on GitHub and Docker Hub.
