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

Retroviral gene transfer resulting in transgene expression selectively restricted to specific cell lineages would be desirable for many gene therapeutic applications. Such transcriptional targeting of retroviruses can be accomplished by employing eukaryotic control elements in self-inactivating (SIN) retroviral vectors, but use of these vectors is complicated by an accompanying reduction in viral titers. To overcome this restriction and address the influence of the post-transcriptional regulatory element of the Woodchuck hepatitis virus (WPRE) on viral titers and transgene expression, we developed SIN-vectors with and without WPRE. Using the enhancer-promoter of the Spleen Focus Forming virus (SFFV) to direct eGFP expression to multiple hematopoietic lineages, we show that WPRE significantly (>10 x) increased viral titers (>10(6) per ml of unconcentrated supernatant) and transgene expression in NIH3T3 cells in vitro. Gene expression in vivo was significantly lowered in lymphoid cells, but not in myeloid cells when WPRE was present. Furthermore, the use of WPRE in combination with the B-cell lineage-specific CD19 promoter significantly increased viral titers and allowed targeting of transgene expression by SIN-vectors specifically to B cells throughout their development in primary and secondary lymphoid organs.
