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

backgroundAs a highly efficient and specific gene regulation technology, RNAi has broad application fields and good prospects. The effect of RNAi enhances as the dosage of siRNA increases, while an exorbitant siRNA dosage will inhibit the RNAi effect. So it is crucial to formulate a dose-effect model to describe the degradation effects of the target mRNA at different siRNA dosages.

resultsIn this work, a simple RNA interference model with hill kinetic function (Giulia Cuccato et al. (2011)) is extended. Firstly, by introducing both the degradation time delay τ

conclusionsOur researches indicate that when the dosage of siRNA is large, oscillating periods are identical for disparate number of siRNA target sites even if it greatly impacts the critical siRNA dosage which is the switch of oscillating behavior. Furthermore, parametric sensitivity analyses of limit cycle disclose that both of degradation lag and maximum degradation rate of mRNA due to RNAi are principal elements on determining periodic oscillation. Our explorations will provide evidence for gene regulation and RNAi.
