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

Adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors are potentially useful vehicles for the delivery of therapeutic genes into human cells. To determine the optimal expression pattern of AAV proteins (Rep78, Rep68, Rep52, Rep40, and Cap proteins) for packaging the recombinant AAV genome, helper plasmids were split into two portions. In this study, two sets of split-type helper plasmids were prepared; i.e., 1) a Rep expression plasmid (pRep) and Cap expression plasmid (pCap), and 2) a large Rep expression plasmid (pR78/68) and small Rep plus Cap expression plasmid (pR52/40Cap). When AAV vectors were produced using these sets of split-type helper plasmids at various ratios, the optimal ratio of (large) Rep expression plasmid and Cap expression plasmid was 1 to 9 for both sets. More importantly, the titers were comparable to or even higher than that of a conventional helper plasmid (pIM45) (4.9+/-2.1x10(11) vector particles/10 cm dish for pRep and pCap; 2.9+/-1.6x10(11) vector particles/10 cm dish for pR78/68 and pR52/40Cap; and 1.8+/-0.16x10(11) particles/10 cm dish for pIM45). Western analysis of AAV proteins suggests that the expression of a relatively small amount of large Rep and a large amount of Cap is important for optimal vector production. The present study shows that the AAV helper plasmid can be split without losing the ability to package the recombinant AAV genome, and provides us with valuable basic information for the development of efficient AAV packaging cell lines.
