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

For therapeutic applications of siRNA, there are technical challenges with respect to targeted and systemic delivery. We here report a new siRNA carrier, RNAtr NPs, in a way that multiple tandem copies of RNA hairpins as a result of rolling circle transcription (RCT) can be readily adapted in tumour-targeted and systemic siRNA delivery. RNAtr NPs provide a means of condensing large amounts of multimeric RNA transcripts into the compact nanoparticles, especially without the aid of polycationic agents, and thus reduce the risk of immunogenicity and cytotoxicity by avoiding the use of synthetic polycationic reagents. This strategy allows the design of a platform technology for systemic delivery of siRNA to tumour sites, because RCT reaction, which enzymatically generates RNA polymers in multiple copy numbers at low cost, can lead to directly accessible routes to targeted and systemic delivery. Therefore, RNAtr NPs suggest great potentials as the siRNA therapeutics for cancer treatment.
