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

A tissue-specific transgenic model was employed to test the effects of intron and vector sequences on transgene expression in zebrafish after microinjection. In this model, the 2.3 kb promoter taken from the 5' upstream region of the transcription initiation site of keratin 4 (krt4) was used to drive the enhanced green fluorescence protein (EGFP) reporter gene in a transgenic vector. For assaying the strength of EGFP expression, the effects of including an intron before the EGFP coding region or using different forms of DNA, including circular plasmid, linear full-length plasmid, and the linear transgene coding region without any prokaryotic vector sequence, were tested. After microinjection, the transgene expression was analyzed using transient assays. Consequently, further comparative analysis supported by Fisher's exact test was performed based on the data generated by analyzing the strength of the transgene expression. It was shown that inclusion of an intron in the construct increases the transgene expression in a transient transgenic zebrafish assay. Furthermore, the circular plasmid containing the transgene produced the strongest EGFP expression.
