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

Recent advances in prime editing technologies using CRISPR modules fused with reverse transcriptase (RT) have enabled efficient and precise reprogramming of target genomic sequences. Twin prime editing using two coordinated prime editor complexes is a promising strategy for inducing extensive genomic modifications via reverse-transcribed complementary templates. However, current twin prime editing systems still require improvements in editing efficiency, accuracy, and intended edit predictability. Here, efficiency and precision of twin prime editing were enhanced via engineering and optimizing conventional SpCas9(H840A)-RT-based prime editor (twin-PE) components. A La-domain-fused prime editor (La-twin-PE) and optimized prime editing guide RNAs (pegRNAs) were developed, achieving a 1.75 ± 0.21-fold increase in gene editing efficiency at multiple genomic loci in human-derived cell lines without increasing unintended indel or inaccurate editing. La-twin-PE facilitated efficient ∼2.8 kb GFP transgene knockin at target loci and eliminated the expanded polyQ tract in
