Gene therapy of cystic fibrosis: the glycofection approach.
Review in Glycoconjugate journal, 2001. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
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
Many cells express surface membrane lectins that selectively bind and carry glycoconjugates into intracellular endosomes; in addition, various intracellular membrane and soluble lectins act as shuttles between different compartments. On this basis, we developed glycosylated polycations, now called glycofectins (glycosylated polylysine and polyethyleneimine). Recently, we set up a simple way to transform oligosaccharides into glycosynthons suitable to substitute proteins or polymers. Glycofectins bind plasmid DNA leading to compact glycoplexes. Glycoplexes prepared with glycofectins were found to be much more active than naked plasmid to transfer genes to various types of cells including human airway epithelial and serous cells. The gene transfer efficiency was found to depend on the nature of the sugars borne by glycofectins. It appeared that the sugar-dependent efficiency was not only related to the uptake but also to the intracellular traffic of glycoplexes.
