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

A portion of the lysosomal enzymes produced by cells is secreted, diffuses through extracellular spaces, and can be taken up by distal cells via mannose-6-phosphate receptor-mediated endocytosis. This provides the basis for treating lysosomal storage diseases, many of which affect the CNS. Normal enzyme secreted from a cluster of genetically corrected cells has been shown to reverse storage lesions in a zone of surrounding brain tissue in mouse disease models. However, low levels of enzyme activity and reduction of storage lesions also have been observed at sites in the brain that may not be explained by a contiguous gradient of secreted enzyme diffusing away from the genetically corrected cells. No direct evidence for alternative mechanisms of enzyme transport has been shown, and little is understood about the intracellular movement of lysosomal enzymes in neurons. We investigated whether axonal transport could occur, by expressing an eukaryotic lysosomal enzyme that can be visualized in tissue sections (beta-glucuronidase) in brain structures that have defined axonal connections to other structures. This resulted in the transfer of enzyme to, and a reversal of storage lesions in, neurons that project to the gene expression site, but not in nearby structures that would have been corrected if the effect had been mediated by diffusion. In addition, transduction of cells in the subventricular zone resulted in the uptake of beta-glucuronidase by cells entering the rostral migratory stream. Gene transfer to specific neuronal circuits or cells in migratory pathways may facilitate delivery to the global brain lesions found in these disorders.
