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

Modulating the expression of a coding or noncoding gene is a key tool in scientific research. This strategy has evolved methodologically due to advances in cloning approaches, modeling/algorithms in short hairpin RNA (shRNA) design for knockdown efficiency, and biochemical modifications in RNA synthesis, among other developments. Overall, these modifications have improved the ways to either reduce or induce the expression of a given gene with efficiency and facility for implementation in the lab. Allied with that, the existence of various human cell line models for cancer covering different histotypes and biological behaviors, especially for thyroid cancer, has helped improve the understanding of cancer biology. In this review, we cover the most frequently used current techniques for gene modulation in the thyroid cancer field, such as RNA interference (RNAi), short hairpin RNA (shRNA), and gene editing with CRISPR/Cas9 for inhibiting a target gene, and strategies to overexpress a gene, such as plasmid cloning and CRISPRa. Exploring the possibilities for gene modulation allows the improvement of the scientific quality of the studies and the integration of clinicians and basic scientists, leading to better development of translational research.
