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

Linear polyethylenimine (L-PEI) is an efficient transfection agent for ovarian carcinoma cells in vitro and ex vivo. In the present work, we go a step further and evaluate the efficacy of L-PEI in human ovarian tumor nodes developed in mice. PEI/DNA complexes were administered intraperitoneally instead of intravenously to avoid sequestering of complexes in the lung and liver and to allow transfection of nonvascularized tumor nodes. Plasmid biodistribution was studied by PCR and gene expression was characterized using complementary luciferase and beta-galactosidase assays. Intraperitoneal (i.p.) injection of L-PEI/DNA complexes allowed the straightforward distribution of plasmid in the whole peritoneal cavity. Gene expression occurred in many organs, but tumor nodes appeared as preferential sites for transgene expression. The i.p. delivery route allowed repeated injections and administration of large amounts of DNA (up to 400 mug) without signs of toxicity, even for doses well beyond the intravenous lethal dose. Transgene expression was dose-dependent and transient. However, multiple injections allowed its persistence to increase. These results provide encouraging elements towards the development of PEI-based gene therapy protocols for the treatment of advanced stage ovarian carcinoma.
