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

T-cell dysfunction is thought to be central to the immunodeficiency state seen in patients with the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS). Aspects of the WAS phenotype have been corrected in other cell types on introduction of the normal WAS protein (WASP), but the potential for correction of the T-cell defects has not been evaluated. Here we demonstrate that an oncoretroviral vector encoding WASP and green fluorescent protein (GFP), and pseudotyped with the RD114 envelope protein, efficiently transduces primary human T cells derived from WAS patients. Transcription initiated at the oncoretroviral long terminal repeat (LTR) results in levels of WASP that, while lower than those seen in normal control T cells, resulted in correction of the deficient proliferative response to T-cell receptor (TCR) stimulation characteristic of WAS. IL2 secretion after TCR stimulation was partially corrected. Control primary T cells transduced with the same vector responded normally to TCR stimulation, and showed no increase in WASP expression. The demonstration that correction of T cell defects can be achieved by gene transfer supports continued efforts to develop gene therapy for WAS.
