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

Small interfering RNA (siRNA)-based therapy has been subject of intense research since the discovery of RNA interference (RNAi), providing a tool to potentially silence any chosen gene. Nevertheless, efficient delivery still presents a major hurdle to translating this promising technology into medical practice. Here, we describe a straightforward method to prepare and characterize an effective delivery system consisting of low-molecular-weight polyethylenimine (PEI) and transferrin (Tf). Tf-PEI polyplexes are not only able to successfully transport and protect the sensitive nucleic acid payload from degradation but also to selectively deliver the siRNA to transferrin receptor (TfR)-overexpressing cells, playing key roles in the pathology of numerous cancer types as well as inflammatory diseases.
