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

backgroundThe purpose of this study was to achieve stomach-selective gene transfer in rats by our simple and novel administration method, which is gastric serosal surface instillation of naked plasmid DNA (pDNA).

methodsNaked pDNA encoding firefly luciferase as a reporter gene was instilled onto the gastric serosal surface in male Wistar rats. As controls, we performed intraperitoneal, intragastric and intravenous administration of naked pDNA. At appropriate time intervals, we measured luciferase activities in the stomach and other tissues.

resultsGene expression in the stomach 6 h after gastric serosal surface instillation of naked pDNA (5 microg) was significantly higher than that after using other administration methods. The present study is the first report on stomach-selective gene transfer following instillation of naked pDNA onto the gastric serosal surface in rats. Also, the gene expression level in the stomach 6 h after gastric serosal surface instillation of naked pDNA was markedly higher than that in other tissues. In a dose-dependent study, the gene expression level was saturated over 5 microg. Gene expression in the stomach was detected 3 h after gastric serosal surface instillation of naked pDNA. The gene expression level peaked 12-24 h after instillation of naked pDNA, then decreased to a level similar to 3 h at 48 h.

conclusionsGastric serosal surface in stillation of naked pDNA can be a highly stomach-selective gene transfer method in rats.
