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 development of vectors that express a therapeutic transgene efficiently and specifically in hematopoietic cells (HCs) is an important goal for gene therapy of hematological disorders. In order to achieve this, we used a 500 bp fragment from the proximal WASP gene promoter to drive the expression of the WASP cDNA in the context of a self-inactivating lentiviral vector. Single-round transduction of WASp-deficient herpesvirus saimiri (HVS)-immortalized cells as well as primary allospecific T cells from Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) patients with this vector (WW) resulted in expression levels similar to those of control cells. Non-HCs were transduced with similar efficiency, but the levels of WASp were 135-350 times lower than those achieved in HCs. Additionally, transduction of WASp-deficient cells with WW conferred a selective growth advantage in vitro. Therefore, lentiviral vectors incorporating proximal promoter sequences from the WASP gene confer hematopoietic-specific, and physiological protein expression.
