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

The ability to control gene expression in mammalian cells is crucial for safe and efficacious gene therapies and for elucidating gene functions. Current gene regulation systems have limitations such as harmful immune responses or low efficiency. We describe the pA regulator, an RNA-based switch that controls mammalian gene expression through modulation of a synthetic polyA signal (PAS) cleavage introduced into the 5' UTR of a transgene. The cleavage is modulated by a 'dual-mechanism'-(1) aptamer clamping to inhibit PAS cleavage and (2) drug-induced alternative splicing that removes the PAS, both activated by drug binding. This RNA-based methodology circumvents the immune responses observed in other systems and achieves a 900-fold induction with an EC
