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

In this chapter, we describe methods for functional genomics studies in mouse macrophages. In particular, we describe complementary methods for gene inhibition using RNA interference (RNAi) and gene overexpression. These methods are readily amenable to medium- and high-throughput functional genomics investigations. These complementary loss-of-function and gain-of-function genomic approaches provide a rapid means of investigating the function of candidate genes prior to initiating more cumbersome studies in vivo.
