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

With the ultimate aim of producing an RNA interference-mediated transgenic pig that is resistant to porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), we have investigated the effect of RNA interference (RNAi) on silencing the expression of viral genes in the MARC-145 cell line. Twenty small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) were designed and screened for their ability to suppress the expression of the genes ORF1b, 5, 6, and 7 from the highly virulent isolate, PRRSV-JXwn06. Of these siRNAs, the four most effective were selected and four short hairpin RNA (shRNA) expression vectors (pGenesil-1-1b-135, pGenesil-1-1b-372, pGenesil-1-6-135, and pGenesil-1-6-169) targeting ORF1b and ORF6 were constructed and delivered into MARC-145 cells. These cells were then infected with JXwn06. All four vectors inhibited the PRRSV-specific cytopathic effect (CPE). The virus titers in cells transfected with pGenesil-1-1b-135, pGenesil-1-1b-372, pGenesil-1-6-135, and pGenesil-1-6-169 were lower than that of control cells by approximately 150-, 600-, 2.3- and 1.7-fold, respectively. In addition, the expression levels of ORF1 and ORF6 were reduced compared with controls. The unglycosylated membrane protein M, encoded by ORF6, was not detectable in cells transfected with shRNA expression vectors. These results verified that RNAi can effectively inhibit PRRSV-JXwn06 replication in cultured cells in vitro. The four shRNA expression vectors are an initial step in the production of transgenic pigs with PRRSV resistance.
