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

RNA interference (RNAi) provides a powerful promising approach to inhibit viral infection specifically. To explore the possibility of using RNAi as a strategy against HEV infection, which is a serious public health problem in developing countries of Asia, Middle East, Africa, and in Mexico, after the fusion protein expression plasmids pEGFP-ORF3 which contain the EGFP reporter gene and SHEV ORF3 as silencing target, were constructed; EGFP-ORF3 fusion protein expressing HEK 293 cell lines were established; and four siRNAs targeting ORF3 gene were designed, synthesized, and used to transfect the stable cell lines. At 24, 48, and 72 h after transfection, flow cytometry, real-time quantitative PCR, and Western blot were used to assess the expression level of ORF3. The results demonstrated that specific siRNAs which are sequence dependant effectively inhibited mRNA accumulation and protein expression of SHEV ORF3 in HEK 293 cells. These findings provide useful information for the development of RNAi-based prophylaxis and therapy for SHEV infection.
