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

Utilizing genetic modules of simple retroviruses, we have developed a novel generation of gene transfer vectors with improved therapeutic potential. In the 5' untranslated "leader" sequences, all AUG codons which may aberrantly initiate translation and all viral coding sequences were removed. Thus, the probability of expressing unwanted peptides and the potential for homologous recombination with retroviral genes were largely reduced, and the cloning capacity was increased. The transgene was inserted to replace the viral gag sequences, and a new minimal splice acceptor was introduced, resulting in increased expression with all genes tested (those coding for human multidrug resistance 1 and enhanced green fluorescent protein, as well as the lacZ gene). These vectors may represent attractive tools for human gene therapy, because they increase the efficiency of transgene expression and may also increase safety in medical applications.
