Pooled CRISPRi screening reveals fungal-specific vulnerabilities across environments and genetic backgrounds.
Article in bioRxiv : the preprint server for biology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
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 rising rate of drug-resistant fungal infections and the emergence of fungal pathogens with intrinsic resistance phenotypes are a growing concern. The close evolutionary distance between mammals and fungi complicates the design of new antifungals and increases the chances of toxic off-target effects. As such, antifungal drug development usually focuses on fungal-specific proteins when considering potential new targets. Ideal drug targets should mediate essential cell processes and be highly sensitive to inhibition. Targeted gene repression can serve as a model for drug-mediated inhibition and for determining the dosage-sensitivity profile of genes of interest. In the fungal pathogen
