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

Recent advancements in the production, modification, and cellular delivery of RNA molecules facilitated the expansion of RNA-based therapeutics. The increasing understanding of RNA biology initiated a corresponding growth in RNA therapeutics. In this review, the general concepts of five classes of RNA-based therapeutics, including RNA interference-based therapies, antisense oligonucleotides, small activating RNA therapies, circular RNA therapies, and messenger RNA-based therapeutics, will be discussed. Moreover, we also provide an overview of RNA-based therapeutics that have already received regulatory approval or are currently being evaluated in clinical trials, along with challenges faced by these technologies. RNA-based drugs demonstrated positive clinical trial results and have the ability to address previously "undruggable" targets, which delivers great promise as a disruptive therapeutic technology to fulfill its full clinical potentiality.
