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
Delivery of antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) to airway epithelial cells is arduous due to the physiological barriers that protect the lungs and the endosomal entrapment phenomenon, which prevents ASOs from reaching their intracellular targets. Various delivery strategies involving peptide-, lipid-, and polymer-based carriers are being investigated, yet the challenge remains. S10 is a peptide-based delivery agent that enables the intracellular delivery of biomolecules such as GFP, CRISPR-associated nuclease ribonucleoprotein (RNP), base editor RNP, and a fluorescent peptide into lung cells after intranasal or intratracheal administrations to mice, ferrets, and rhesus monkeys. Herein, we demonstrate that covalently attaching S10 to a fluorescently labeled peptide or a functional splice-switching phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomer improves their intracellular delivery to airway epithelia in mice after a single intranasal instillation. Data reveal a homogeneous delivery from the trachea to the distal region of the lungs, specifically into the cells lining the airway. Quantitative measurements further highlight that conjugation via a disulfide bond through a pegylated (PEG) linker was the most beneficial strategy compared with direct conjugation (without the PEG linker) or conjugation via a permanent thiol-maleimide bond. We believe that S10-based conjugation provides a great strategy to achieve intracellular delivery of peptides and ASOs with therapeutic properties in lungs.
