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

The impact of hydrodynamic injection on liver structure was evaluated in mice using various microscopic techniques. Upon hydrodynamic injection of approximately 9% of body weight by volume, the liver rapidly expanded, reaching maximal size at the end of the injection and returned to its original size in 30 min. Histological analysis revealed a swollen appearance in the peri-central region of the liver where delivery of genes and fluorescence-labeled markers was observed. Scanning and transmission electron microscopy showed enlargement and rupture of endothelium that in about 24-48 h regains its morphology and normal function as a barrier against infection by adenovirus viral particles. At the cellular level in hydrodynamically treated animals, four types of hepatocytes were seen: cells with normal appearance; cells with enriched vesicles in the cytoplasm; cells with lightly stained cytosol; and cells with significant dilution of the cytoplasm. In addition, red blood cells and platelets were observed in the space of Disse and even inside hepatocytes. Vesicle formation is triggered by hydrodynamic injection and resembles the process of macropinocytosis. These results, whereas confirming the physical nature of hydrodynamic delivery, are important for a better understanding of this efficient method for intrahepatic gene and small interfering RNA delivery.
