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

Gene editing technologies can be used to develop new traits in plants by modifying DNA at specific locations. In many countries, plants made using these techniques, collectively called New Genomic Techniques (NGTs), are being regulated more leniently than transgenic genetically modified organisms (GMOs), opening possibilities for releasing gene-edited plant varieties onto the market. In other countries, including the European Union (EU), proposals for an adapted regulation are in discussion. We describe how the different types of modifications made with NGTs are regulated across the world. We provide an updated overview of gene-edited plant products that have been marketed worldwide, approved, or are currently in field trials. Consumer perception may be a challenge for plant products made using NGTs, but otherwise the commercialization of these new varieties faces the same challenges as new conventional products, including farmer and processor needs, market competition, and consumer preferences.
