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

purposeThe purpose of this study was to evaluate glucose responsiveness in HepG2 human hepatoma cells transduced by a recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV) vector containing the insulin gene promoter. and to investigate the effect of protamine sulfate on rAAV-mediated gene delivery.

methodsRecombinant AAV vector, AAV.Ins.Luc.delta EGFP, was employed to transduce HepG2 hepatoma cells. Virus infection was carried out either in the absence or presence of protamine sulfate, followed by fluorescence microscopic examination, luciferase activity assay, and flow cytometric analysis. Electrokinetic measurements were carried out to determine the effect of protamine sulfate on zeta potential of the cells and the virus.

resultsGlucose-responsive luciferase gene expression was obtained in rAAV-transduced HepG2 cells. Addition of 5 microg/ml protamine reversed the zeta potential of the cells and the virus particles, leading to enhanced transgene expression in rAAV-transduced HepG2 cells. Enhancement of protamine sulfate on rAAV-mediated gene transfer was dose-dependent. Addition of more than 5 microg/ml protamine resulted in a reduction of infectability of the virus.

conclusionsGlucose responsiveness in the millimolar concentration range can be obtained in rAAV-transduced HepG2 cells. Protamine sulfate, up to 5 microg/ml, enhanced the rAAV transduction efficiency in HepG2 cells. The enhancement was correlated with zeta potential of the cells and the virus.
