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.
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
A critical issue for E1-deleted adenoviral vectors manufactured from 293 cells is the emergence of replication-competent adenovirus (RCA). These contaminants arise through homologous recombination between identical sequences framing the E1 locus displayed by 293 cells, and the vector backbones. Modified recombinogenic sequences (syngen) were thus introduced within the vector backbone, and virus viability and RCA emergence were assessed. Syngen#1 is a synthetic sequence displaying silent point mutations in the pIX and IVa2 coding regions. A side by side comparison of Ad5CMV/p53 (E1-deleted adenovirus expressing the p53 tumor suppressor gene) and AVdeltaE1#1CMV/p53 (with syngen#1 in place of wild-type sequences) demonstrated a normal productivity for the modified construct. The altered sequences did not impair p53-mediated apoptosis in a model tumor cell line. Most importantly, a statistically significant decrease in terms of RCA occurrence could also be demonstrated. Degenerescence of the recombinogenic sequences could be further accentuated by modifying noncoding pIX region (syngen #2), with no effect on virus productivity and stability. We concluded that these vector modifications constitute a feasible strategy to reduce RCA emergence during amplification in 293 cells. This approach could also be applied to decrease reincorporation of the E1 genes during amplification of deltaE1deltaE4 vectors in 293/E4-trans-complementing cells.
