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

purposeTo evaluate the pulmonary distribution of CGP69846A (ISIS 5132), a phosphorothioate oligonucleotide, following intra-tracheal (i.t.) instillation into Brown-Norway rats.

methodsThe pharmacokinetic profile of [3H]-CGP69846A was investigated following i.t. instillation into both naive and inflamed airways of Brown-Norway rats. The cellular distribution was determined using autoradiography, immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry/fluorescence microscopy, in inflamed airways.

resultsCGP69846A displayed a dose-dependent lung retention following i.t. administration which was unaffected by local inflammation. Autoradiography and immunohistochemistry showed distribution to alveolar macrophages, eosinophils, bronchial and tracheal epithelium and alveolar cells. Studies with [FITC]-CGP69846A demonstrated a preferential association of oligonucleotide with leukocytes in bronchial lavage fluid of: macrophages > eosinophils = neutrophils >> lymphocytes.

conclusionsThe dose-dependency of lung retention together with cell-specific uptake suggests that the lung can be used as a local target for antisense molecules with potentially minimal systemic effects. Furthermore, the preferential targeting of macrophages and the airway epithelium by oligonucleotides may represent rational cellular targets for antisense therapeutics.
