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

Messenger RNA (mRNA) therapeutics can be used to protect against infectious disease and for the treatment of cancers and genetic disorders. In order to obtain the desired therapeutic dosage, it is necessary to concentrate the mRNA to levels where the viscosity of the mRNA solutions can become significant. However, there is currently no quantitative data on the viscosity of these concentrated mRNA solutions. Experiments were performed with two model mRNA constructs: a firefly luciferase (Fluc) mRNA (2.117 kb) and a self-amplifying RNA (9.442 kb) over a wide range of concentrations. The viscosity of the larger saRNA was more than 140 mPa·s at a concentration of 28 mg/mL, which is more than 10× larger than that for the Fluc mRNA under the same conditions. The viscosity was a weak function of shear rate (from 10 to 100 s
