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

Wheat is a staple cereal in the human diet. Despite its significance, an increasing percentage of the population suffers adverse reactions to wheat, which are triggered by wheat gluten, particularly the gliadin fractions. In this study, we employed CRISPR/Cas [clustered regularly interspaced palindromic repeats (CRISPR)/CRISPR-associated protein] multiplexing to introduce targeted mutations into γ- and ω-gliadin genes of wheat, to produce lines deficient in one or both immunogenic gliadin fractions simultaneously. For this study, eight single guide RNAs (sgRNAs) were designed and combined into four plasmids to produce 59 modified wheat lines, of which 20 exhibited mutations in the target genes. Characterization of these lines through Sanger sequencing or next-generation sequencing revealed a complex pattern of InDels, including deletions spanning multiple sgRNAs. The mutations were transmitted to the offspring, and the analysis of homozygous derived lines by reverse-phase HPLC and monoclonal antibodies showed a 97.7% reduction in gluten content. Crossing these lines with other CRISPR/Cas lines deficient in the α-gliadins allowed multiple mutations to be combined. This work represents an important step forward in the use of CRISPR/Cas to develop gluten-free wheat.
