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

Engagement of the B-cell antigen receptor (BCR) by crosslinking of the surface immunoglobulin (sIg) homodimer was studied for recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV)-mediated gene transfer into B-cell chronic lymphocytic leukaemia (B-CLL) cells. Leukemic cells obtained from 20 patients were stimulated with anti-sIg-directed antibodies and transduced with rAAV vectors coding for enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP) (AAV/EGFP) or CD40L (AAV/CD40L). Transduction of B-CLL cells was enhanced after BCR engagement compared to unstimulated controls (P=0.0356). BCR crosslinking induced a significant, dose- and time-dependent upregulation of heparan sulfate proteoglycan (HSPG), the primary receptor for AAV, on B-CLL cells (mean: 38.2 versus 1.7%; P=0.0006). A correlation of HSPG expression after BCR crosslinking with transduction efficiency by AAV/EGFP (P=0.0153) and AAV/CD40L (P=0.0347) was observed. High expression of zeta-associated protein 70 (ZAP-70) in B-CLL cells correlated with a better transduction efficiency by AAV/EGFP (P<0.0001) and AAV/CD40L (P=0.002), respectively: 48 h after transduction of ZAP-70-positive samples, transgene expression was seen in a mean of 33.8% (s.e.m. 3.7%) and 28.9% (s.e.m. 6.7%) of cells, respectively, and could be specifically blocked by heparin, a soluble competitor of HSPG (P<0.0001). In summary, engagement of the BCR on ZAP-70 positive B-CLL cells allows efficient rAAV-mediated gene delivery.
