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

Our previous work showed that there is a limitation in the use of dihydrofolate reductase (dhfr)/methotrexate (MTX)-mediated gene amplification systems in dhfr-non-deficient HEK293 cells, as endogenous dhfr may interfere with the amplification process. In the present study, we successfully generated Epstein-Barr virus nuclear antigen-1 (EBNA-1)-amplified HEK293 cells in a dhfr-non-deficient HEK293 cell background using a single-plasmid vector-based gene amplification system with shRNA targeting the 3'-UTR of endogenous dhfr. The introduction of this shRNA efficiently downregulated the expression of endogenous dhfr in the HEK293 cells without affecting exogenous dhfr expression. The downregulation of endogenous dhfr improved the efficiency of EBNA-1 amplification, as evidenced by a comparison with the amplification extent in cells lacking shRNA expression at the same MTX concentration. The EBNA-1 expression levels from the EBNA-1-amplified clones selected in this study were higher than those obtained from EBNA-1-amplified clones that were generated using the conventional amplification in our previous study. Consistent with previous studies, EBNA-1 amplification improved the production of the Fc-fusion protein through a specific protein productivity (q
