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

The past few years have been marked by substantial progress in preclinical studies of therapeutic gene transfer for neurologic disease using viral-based vectors. In this article, the authors review the data regarding (1). treatment of focal neuronal degeneration, exemplified by Parkinson disease, ischemia, and trauma models; (2). treatment of global neurologic dysfunction, exemplified by the mucopolysaccharidoses and other storage diseases; (3). peripheral nervous system diseases including motor neuron disease and sensory neuropathies; and (4). the use of vectors expressing neurotransmitters to modulate functional neural activity in the treatment of pain. The results suggest that a number of different viral vectors may be appropriate for gene transfer to the central nervous system for specific disease processes, and that for the peripheral nervous system herpes simplex virus-based vectors appear to have special utility. The results of the first human gene therapy trials for neurologic disease, which are just now beginning, will be crucial in defining the next step in the development of this therapy.
