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

Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) is an immune deficiency with thrombopenia resulting from mutations in the WASP gene. This gene normally encodes the Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome protein (WASP), a major cytoskeletal regulator expressed in hematopoietic cells. Gene therapy is a promising option for the treatment of WAS, requiring that clinically applicable WASP gene transfer vectors demonstrate efficacy in preclinical studies. Here, we describe a self-inactivating HIV-1-derived lentiviral vector encoding human WASP and show that it effectively transduced bone marrow progenitor cells of WASP knockout (WKO) mice. Transplantation of these transduced cells into lethally irradiated WKO recipients led to stable expression of WASP and correction of immune, inflammatory and cytoskeletal defects. Splenic T-cell proliferation was restored, podosomes were reinstated on bone-marrow-derived dendritic cells and colon inflammation was reduced. This shows for the first time (a) that cytoskeletal defects can be corrected in WKO mice, (b) that human WASP is biologically active in mice and (c) that a lentiviral vector is effective to express human WASP in vivo over several months. These data support further development of such lentiviral vectors for the gene therapy of WAS.
