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

Electrotransfection is a non-viral method for delivery of nucleic acids into cells. In our previous study, we have determined the minimal copy number of plasmid DNA (pDNA) per cell required for transgene expression post electrotransfection, and developed a statistical framework to predict the pDNA copy number in the nucleus. To experimentally verify the prediction, the current study was designed to quantify the average copy number of pDNA per nucleus post electrotransfection. To achieve it, we developed a novel approach to effectively obtain isolated nuclei with minimal contamination by extranuclear pDNA. This sample preparation method enabled us to accurately measure intranuclear pDNA using quantitative real-time PCR. The data showed that the copy number of pDNA per nucleus was dependent on the period of cell culture post pulsing and the pDNA dose for electrotransfection. Additionally, the data were used to improve the statistical framework for understanding kinetics of pDNA transport in cells, and predicting how the kinetics depended on different factors. It is expected that the framework and the methodology developed in the current study will be useful for evaluating factors that may affect kinetics and mechanisms of pDNA transport in cells.
