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

Therapeutic oligonucleotides, such as splice switching ONs (SSOs), provide opportunities for treating serious, life-threatening diseases. However, the development of ONs as therapeutic agents has progressed slowly, because difficult cytosolic delivery of SSOs into the cytosol and nucleus remains a major barrier. Photochemical internalization (PCI), a promising strategy for endosomal escape, was introduced to disrupt the endosomal membrane using light and a photosensitizer. Here we constructed Poly(amido amine) (PAMAM) dendrimer conjugates to simultaneously deliver SSOs and photosensitizers into endo/lysosomal compartments. After photo-irradiation, considerable ONs were observed to diffuse into the cytosol and accumulate in the nucleus. Furthermore, the PCI mediated cytosolic delivery of SSOs effectively enhanced their nuclear splice switching activity.
