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

Functional analyses of gene function by knockdown and expression approaches strongly enhance the genetic study of development. In vivo application of the introduction of inhibitors of gene expression, mRNA, and expression constructs in the target region make it possible to perform region- and stage-specific regulation of gene function in a simple manner. As a basic tool for the conditional regulation of gene expression in target tissue, we present methods for the efficient introduction of antisense morpholino oligonucleotide (MO), mRNA, and expression plasmid constructs into early and later stage zebrafish embryo and larva. Lipofection of a neuron-specific expression construct plasmid encoding green fluorescent protein (GFP) into optic vesicle resulted in clear GFP expression in the retinotectal pathway in hatched larva. Co-lipofection of MO and GFP mRNA to the presumptive head region resulted in brain-specific knockdown of the gene in mid-stage embryos.
