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

Cancer is a significant health concern worldwide and its clinical treatment presents many challenges. Consequently, much research effort has focused on the development of new anticancer drugs to combat this disease. One area of exploration, in particular, has been in the therapeutic application of RNA interference (RNAi). Although RNAi appears to be an attractive therapeutic tool for the treatment of cancer, one of the primary obstacles towards its pervasive use in the clinic has been cell/tissue type-specific cytosolic delivery of therapeutic small interfering RNA (siRNA) molecules. Consequently, varied drug delivery platforms have been developed and widely explored for siRNA delivery. Among these candidate drug delivery systems, peptides have shown great promise as siRNA carriers due to their varied physiochemical properties and functions, simple formulations, and flexibility in design. In this review, we will focus on distinguishing between the different classes of peptide carriers based on their functions, as well as summarize and discuss the various design strategies and advancements that have been made in circumventing the barriers to siRNA delivery for cancer treatment. Resolution of these challenges by peptide carriers will accelerate the translation of RNAi-based therapies to the clinic.
