Effective inhibition of expression of hepatitis B virus genes by DNAzymes.
Article in World journal of gastroenterology, 2005. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 4 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
aimTo evaluate the inhibitory effects of DNAzymes on the expressions of hepatitis B virus (HBV) s (HBsAg) and e (HBeAg) in 2.2.15 cells, and to explore the potential therapeutic effects of DNAzymes on replication of HBV genome.
methodsDNAzymes DrzBS and DrzBC specific to HBV (ayw subtype) s gene ORF A157UG and e gene ORF A1816UG, were designed and synthesized. Inhibitory effects of DrzBS or DrzBC on the expressions of HBV s and e genes as well as HBV DNA levels in culture supernatants were observed in 2.2.15 cells.
resultsAfter being treated with DrzBS or DrzBC, the expression of HBV s or e genes in 2.2.15 cells was depressed dramatically. The maximum inhibition rate was 94.2% and 91.8% for DrzBS and DrzBC, respectively. The concentration for effective inhibition of both DrzBS and DrzBC was within 0.1-2.5 micromol/L, showing a dose-dependence. The efficiency of inhibiting HBsAg, HBeAg in 2.2.15 cells by DrzBS or DrzBC was higher than that of the same target genes by antisense oligonucleotides (ASON). The concentration for effective inhibition of DNAzymes was at least 10-fold lower compared with ASON controls. Neither inhibition on the replication of HBV DNA nor toxicity to 2.2.15 cells was observed.
conclusionDrzBS and DrzBC can block the expression of HBV s- and e-genes in 2.2.15 cells and provide a specific and effective anti-HBV gene therapeutic means.
