Preclinical and clinical pharmacology of antisense oligonucleotides.
Review in Molecular biotechnology, 1999. 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
Antisense oligonucleotides are short (typically 15-20 bases in length pieces of synthetically manufactured, chemically modified DNA or RNA. They are designed to interact by Watson-Crick base pairing with mRNA transcripts encoding proteins of interest, and by virtue of this interaction inhibit the expression of the protein encoded in the mRNA. Since their first proposed use in 1978, antisense oligonucleotides have become come widely used as tools to modulate gene expression in tissue culture. The great specificity that these compounds exhibited in vitro has also led them to be viewed as potentially therapeutically useful. This interest has resulted in the progression of (to date) a dozen compounds into human clinical trials for a variety of indications ranging from cancer to inflammatory diseases. Here, we will review some of the progress that has been made with antisense pharmacology, both in vitro and in vivo, as well as describe the current status of this class of compound in clinical trials.
