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

Electrotransfer (electroporation) is recognized as one of the most promising alternatives to viral vectors for transfection of different tissues in vivo for therapeutic purposes. We evaluated the transfection efficiency of reporter genes (green fluorescent protein and luciferase) in murine subcutaneous tumors using different combinations of high-field (HV) (600-1400 V cm(-1), 100 mus, 8 pulses) and low-field (LV) (80-160 V cm(-1), 50-400 ms, 1-8 pulses) pulses and compared it to protocol using eight identical pulses of 600 V cm(-1) and 5 ms duration (electro-gene therapy, EGT). Expression of GFP was determined using a fluorescent microscope and flow cytometry and expression of luciferase by measuring its activity using a luminometer. The EGT protocol yielded the highest expression of both reporter genes. However, a careful optimization of combinations of HV and LV pulses may result in similar transfection as EGT pulses. With the combination protocol, relatively high fields of LV pulses were necessary to obtain comparable transfection to the EGT protocol. Expression of reporter genes was higher in B16 melanoma than in SA-1 fibrosarcoma. Our data support the hypothesis that both electropermeabilization and electrophoresis are involved in electrotransfer of plasmid DNA, but demonstrate that these components have to happen at the same time to obtain significant expression of the target gene in tumors.
