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

RNA interference (RNAi) is mediated by an ∼21-nt double-stranded small interfering RNA (siRNA) and shows great promise in delineating gene functions and in developing therapeutics for human diseases. However, effective gene silencing usually requires the delivery of multiple siRNAs for a given gene, which is often technically challenging and time-consuming. In this study, by exploiting the type IIS restriction endonuclease-based synthetic biology methodology, we developed the fast assembly of multiplex siRNAs (FAMSi) system. In our proof-of-concept experiments, we demonstrated that multiple fragments containing three, four, or five siRNA sites targeting common Smad4 and/or BMPR-specific Smad1, Smad5, and Smad8 required for BMP9 signaling could be assembled efficiently. The constructed multiplex siRNAs effectively knocked down the expression of Smad4 and/or Smad1, Smad5, and Smad8 in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs), and they inhibited all aspects of BMP9-induced osteogenic differentiation in bone marrow MSCs (BMSCs), including decreased expression of osteogenic regulators/markers, reduced osteogenic marker alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity, and diminished
