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

In parallel with the expansion of RNA interference (RNAi) techniques, accumulating evidence indicates that RNAi analyses might be seriously biased due to the off-target effects of gene-specific short hairpin RNAs (shRNAs). Our findings indicated that off-target effects of non-targeting shRNA comprise another source of misinterpreted shRNA-based data. We found that SHC016, which is one of two non-targeting shRNA controls for the MISSION (commercialized TRC) library, exerts deleterious effects that lead to elimination of the shRNA-coding cassette from the genomes of cultured murine and human cells. Here, we used a lentiviral vector with inducible SHC016 expression to confirm that this shRNA induces apoptosis in murine cells and senescence or mitotic catastrophe depending on the p53 status in human tumor cells. We identified the core spliceosomal protein, small nuclear ribonucleoprotein Sm D3 (SNRPD3), as a major SHC016 target in several cell lines and confirmed that CRISPRi knockdown of
