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

Short interfering RNAs (siRNAs) show promise as gene-silencing therapeutics, but their cellular uptake remains a challenge. We have recently shown the synthesis of siRNAs bearing a single neutral phenylethyl phosphotriester linkage within the sense strand. Here, we report the synthesis of siRNAs bearing three different hydrophobic phosphate triester linkages at key positions within the sense strand and assess their gene silencing in the absence of a transfection carrier. The best siRNAs bearing hydrophobic phosphate triester tails were not aromatic and exhibited effective gene silencing (IC
