RNA interference using a plasmid construct expressing short-hairpin RNA.
Article in Methods in molecular biology (Clifton, N.J.), 2007. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 5 papers.
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.
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
RNA interference (RNAi) is one of the most commonly used procedures for gene targeting in today's cutting edge technology and has great potential for use in clinical therapy. Using a plasmid construct that exogenously expresses short-hairpin RNAs (shRNAs) targeting a desired gene transcript not only helps to study the downstream effects of a gene product but also offers an alternative to viral vectors for gene therapy. Using a plasmid vector to knockdown a gene allows for long-term and permanent gene knockdown, without the need to generate knockout genotypes. Here, we detail the methodology for constructing a plasmid targeting the human telomerase reverse transcriptase (hTERT) gene through RNAi using the Ambion pSilencer system.
