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
purposeA novel core-shell gene delivery system was fabricated in order to improve its gene transfection efficiency, particularly in the presence of serum. MATERIALS AND
methodsalpha, beta-poly (L-aspartate-graft-PEI) (PAE) was simply synthesized by ring-opening reaction of poly (L-succinimide) with low molecular weight (LMW) linear polyethylenimine (PEI, Mn = 423). PAE/DNA nanoparticles were characterized. Condensation and protection ability of plasmid by PAE were confirmed by agarose gel electrophoresis assay. Cytotoxicity of the polymer and polymer/DNA nanoparticles were measured by MTS assay. Gene transfection efficiencies were evaluated both in vitro and in vivo.
resultsCore-shell nanoparticles assembled between DNA and PAE showed positive zeta potential, narrow size distribution, and spherical compact shapes with size below 250 nm when N/P ratio is above 10. Cytotoxicity of PAE was rather lower than that of PEI 25K, while the most efficient gene transfection and serum resistant ability of PAE/DNA complexes were higher than that of PEI 25K. Bafilomycin A1 treatment suggested "proton sponge" mechanism of PAE-mediated gene transfection. PAE/pEGFP-N2 nanoparticles also showed good gene expression in vivo and were dominantly distributed in kidney, liver, spleen and lung after intravenous administration.
conclusionsThe results demonstrated the potential use of PAE as an effective gene carrier.
