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

Human chondrocytes accumulate an ECM-rich matrix by secreting matrix macromolecules during monolayer culture, which makes them difficult to transfect efficiently. Here we report a non-viral based protocol to transfect the primary human chondrocytes with high efficiency in suspension. Chondrocyte cultures were digested using Pronase and Collagenase and transfected in suspension. Transfection efficiencies of more than 80% were achieved routinely using the protocol described. The viability of siRNA transfected or un-transfected chondrocytes was not affected and resulted in 80-90% knockdown of the target mRNA levels. This protocol may be useful in gene knockdown, and ectopic overexpression studies in chondrocytes.
