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

Current liposomal gene delivery systems predominately utilize cationic lipids, which efficiently bind and deliver DNA plasmid, but also result in nonspecific gene expression in lung and liver tissue. To improve specificity, a two-component delivery strategy employing neutral liposomes was used to target breast cancers positive for the human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (Her-2). The first component consisted of plasmid DNA condensed with cationic polyethylene glycol (PEG) modified polylysine (PL/DNA). The second component was a neutral Her-2 targeting liposome conjugated to the pore-forming protein, Listeriolysin O (LLO). Independently, PL/DNA delivery resulted in low expression of plasmid DNA. However, when PL/DNA and LLO/liposomes co-localized within an endosome, LLO disrupted endosome integrity, leading to cytoplasmic delivery and expression of the plasmid. When used to deliver a plasmid encoding the luciferase gene, this two-component system resulted in gene expression that was 268-fold greater in Her-2 positive cells than in Her-2 negative cells. FROM THE CLINICAL EDITOR: In this paper a novel two-component gene delivery method is presented using PL/DNA and LLO liposomes, demonstrating strongly significant results in a model system.
