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

Hyperbranched poly(β-amino ester) (HPAE) is identified as a unique non-viral carrier capable of sustaining high-efficiency transfection under elevated plasmid concentrations, overcoming the aggregation and toxicity limitations of conventional lipid and PEI reagents. We demonstrate that transfection enhancement is driven by concentration-dependent synergism between membrane accumulation and endosomal escape. Guided by this mechanism, a half-volume transfection strategy was established to transiently elevate plasmid concentration without compromising cell viability, enabling superior lentivirus yield and purity. These findings define plasmid concentration as a previously overlooked regulatory axis in nanoparticle-mediated gene delivery and position HPAE as a high-performance platform for scalable therapeutic vector production.
