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

Nucleic acid drugs represent the latest generation of precision therapeutics, holding significant promise for the treatment of a wide range of intractable diseases. Delivery technology is crucial for the clinical application of nucleic acid drugs. However, extrahepatic delivery of nucleic acid drugs remains a significant challenge. Systemic administration often fails to achieve sufficient drug enrichment in target tissues. Localized administration has emerged as the predominant approach to facilitate extrahepatic delivery. While localized administration can significantly enhance drug accumulation at the injection sites, nucleic acid drugs still face biological barriers in reaching the target lesions. This review focuses on non-viral nucleic acid drug delivery techniques utilized in local administration for the treatment of extrahepatic diseases. First, the classification of nucleic acid drugs is described. Second, the current major non-viral delivery technologies for nucleic acid drugs are discussed. Third, the bio-barriers, administration approaches, and recent research advances in the local delivery of nucleic acid drugs for treating lung, brain, eye, skin, joint, and heart-related diseases are highlighted. Finally, the challenges associated with the localized therapeutic application of nucleic acid drugs are addressed.
