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

Larvae of the African midge Polypedilum vanderplanki show extreme desiccation tolerance, known as anhydrobiosis. Recently, the cultured cell line Pv11 was derived from this species; Pv11 cells can be preserved in the dry state for over 6 months and retain their proliferation potential. Here, we attempted to expand the use of Pv11 cells as a model to investigate the mechanisms underlying anhydrobiosis in P. vanderplanki. A newly developed vector comprising a constitutive promoter for the PvGapdh gene allowed the expression of exogenous proteins in Pv11 cells. Using this vector, a stable Pv11 cell line expressing green fluorescence protein (GFP) was established and retained desiccation tolerance. Gene silencing with GFP-specific siRNAs significantly suppressed GFP expression to approximately 7.5-34.6% of that in the non-siRNA-transfected GFP stable line. Establishment of these functional assays will enable Pv11 cells to be utilized as an effective tool to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying anhydrobiosis.
