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) is a promising gene transfer vector tested in both animal studies and human clinical trials. However, current production methods are generally inefficient and require improvements to meet the increasing clinical need for economical, high titer and high quality rAAV vectors. The inefficiency of the current systems largely arises from the AAV helper function, which contains only the AAV coding region but lacks inverted terminal repeats. The terminal repeats were originally removed to prevent replication competent AAV contamination. Here we designed a novel and highly efficient rAAV helper function containing AAV terminal repeats. The new helper function not only mimics the wild-type AAV growth as it replicates along with the vector plasmid, but also restores the cis regulating function of the AAV terminal repeats. Addition of heterologous introns to the helper genome and use of a mutant AAV terminal repeat defective in packaging effectively controls the contamination of replication competent AAV particles. This new strategy also performs better in AAV producing cell lines than those based on non-replicating AAV rep and cap genome.
