CRISPR/Cas9 Protocols for Disrupting Gene Function in the Non-vertebrate Chordate Ciona.
Review in Integrative and comparative biology, 2024. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
The evolutionary origins of chordates and their diversification into the three major subphyla of tunicates, vertebrates, and cephalochordates pose myriad questions about the genetic and developmental mechanisms underlying this radiation. Studies in non-vertebrate chordates have refined our model of what the ancestral chordate may have looked like, and have revealed the pre-vertebrate origins of key cellular and developmental traits. Work in the major tunicate laboratory model Ciona has benefitted greatly from the emergence of CRISPR/Cas9 techniques for targeted gene disruption. Here we review some of the important findings made possible by CRISPR in Ciona, and present our latest protocols and recommended practices for plasmid-based, tissue-specific CRISPR/Cas9-mediated mutagenesis.
