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

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs found to govern nearly every biological process. They frequently acquire a gain or a loss of function in cancer, hence playing a causative role in the development and progression of cancer. There are major obstacles on the way for the successful delivery of miRNA, which include low cellular uptake of the RNA and endosomal escape, immunogenicity, degradation in the bloodstream, and rapid renal clearance. The delivered miRNA needs to be successfully routed to the target organ, enter the cell and reach its intracellular target in an active form. Consequently, in order to exploit the promise of RNA interference, there is an urgent need for efficient methods to deliver miRNAs. These can be divided into three main categories: complexation, encapsulation, and conjugation. In this review, we will discuss the special considerations for miRNA delivery for cancer therapy, focusing on nonviral delivery systems: lipid, polymeric, and inorganic nanocarriers.
