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

Polyethylenimine (PEI) has been used widely in transient gene expression studies of mammalian cells. We performed transient gene expression in suspension Chinese hamster ovary cells using a one-step transfection procedure in which DNA and PEI were simultaneously added to a cell culture in suspension without prior PEI/DNA complex incubation. To further understand the effect of PEI/DNA formation on the transfection and expression of exogenous gene in shaking state, we investigated the diameter and overcharge of the PEI/DNA complex. The results showed that the diameter of the complex was smaller with more positive charge when the PEI/DNA ratio was higher. Moreover, DNA more easily penetrated cells and nuclei at higher PEI concentrations. The highest transcription level, transfection efficiency, and GFP expression were obtained when the PEI/DNA ratio was 5:1.
