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

Tumor targeting--per definition--includes any strategy to improve the specificity of the therapeutic nucleic acid towards the tumor site, while highest biological activity should be maintained. Targeting has been successfully achieved at the transcriptional, transductional or delivery level. For tumor-specific delivery, physical targeting methods like electroporation, hyperthermia, magnetofection, photochemical internalization or ultrasound, and biological targeting systems, including active and passive tumor targeting, have been developed. Therapeutic effects could be demonstrated with various targeted nucleic acid formulations, such as tumor-targeted DNA plasmids expressing p53 or tumor necrosis factor alpha, small interfering RNAs knocking down gene expression from tumor specific chromosomal translocations or gene expression of tumor neoangiogenic processes, as well as double stranded RNA poly inosine-cytosine which triggers apoptosis in targeted tumor cells.
