pH-sensitive zwitterionic polycarboxybetaine as a potential non-viral vector for small interfering RNA delivery.
Article in RSC advances, 2020. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 7 papers.
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.
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
Small interfering RNA (siRNA) has great potential for the treatment of various diseases. However, its intrinsic deficiencies seriously limit its application. Herein, pH-sensitive zwitterionic polymer polycarboxybetaine (PCB) was developed as a non-viral vector for siRNA. The PCB could be protonated in an acidic environment and become positively charged from a cancer site. After protonation, PCB could complex siRNA
