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

At LFB USA, Inc., the ultimate use for transgenic cloned goats is for the production of recombinant human protein therapeutics in their milk. This retrospective analysis of the Somatic Cell Nuclear Transfer (SCNT) program, spanning from 1998 to 2010, examined parameters potentially affecting the outcomes and efficiencies in this commercial operation. Over 37,000 + ova were utilized in the SCNT protocol producing a total of 203 cloned goats. Fifty one (51) clones were produced from non-transfected (transgenic and non-transgenic animal donor) cell lines and 152 clones were produced from transfected cell lines. Comparisons and summaries of (a) transfected versus non-transfected cell lines, (b) relationship of SCNT parameters to offspring produced, (c) skin versus fetal cells, (d) fresh versus cryopreserved cells, (e) parameters from all cell lines used versus those producing SCNT offspring, (f) variation among cell sources, (g) methods of SCNT parturition management and effects on live offspring, and lastly (h) SCNT variation by program are reported. Findings indicate that (a) non-transfected cell lines were more efficient versus transfected cell lines in generating viable cloned offspring on a per reconstructed embryo transferred basis, (b) transfected fetal fibroblasts had improved efficiency versus transfected skin fibroblasts, (c) the percentage of non-transfected cell lines that produced offspring was statistically higher than transfected cell lines, (d) and induction of parturition improved the percentage of viable offspring. In summary, this retrospective analysis on the SCNT process has identified certain parameters for improved efficiency in producing viable cloned goats in a commercial setting.
