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 use of nanoparticles as carriers for the delivery of therapeutic materials to target tissues has became popular in recent years and has demonstrated great potentials for the treatments of a wide range of diseases. In this review, we summarize the advantages of nanotechnology as a common gene delivery strategy with emphasis on ocular therapy. Particular attention is paid to the CK30-PEG compacted DNA nanoparticles that have been successfully tested in the eye, lung, and brain. These particles resulted in higher transfection efficiency and longer duration of expression than other non-viral vectors without any toxicity or other side effects. They have been safely used clinically and are efficient for a broad range of gene therapy applications. The review also discusses mechanisms of nanoparticle uptake and internalization by cells, obstacles and limitations to the use of this technology, as well as novel methodologies to optimize nanoparticle driven gene expression.
