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

This manuscript describes a convenient method for partial transfection using a Y-shaped microchannel polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS)-glass chip and on-chip cationic lipid-mediated transfection. Enhanced green fluorescent protein genes (pEGFP-N2) were introduced into the COS-7 cells cultured in half of the channel, while red fluorescent protein genes (pDsRed-N1) were introduced into the cells cultured in another half of the channel. This on-chip partial transfection technique provides an avenue for the spatial control of transfection. It is possible to use this technique to perform parallel transfection on chips in order to study cell behaviors under two or more gene transfections in the same culture.
