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

Exon-skipping therapy for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) recovers muscle function by inducing shorter but functional dystrophin protein using antisense oligonucleotides (ASOs) that modulate the pre-mRNA splicing of DMD transcripts to restore the disrupted DMD reading frame. Next-generation ASO should have appropriate sequences and modifications that induce exon skipping and ensure efficient delivery to target tissues. Conventional methods involve analyzing biopsied tissues using RT-PCR or immunoblotting to evaluate exon skipping or the expression of induced proteins. However, these methods are laborious and time-consuming, resulting in a low throughput. In this chapter, we present a novel evaluation method using reporter mice. Exon skipping induces the expression of fluorescent proteins enabling noninvasive monitoring. This in vivo method allows for a high-throughput evaluation of the efficacy of ASO-induced exon skipping.
