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

Transplantation of allogeneic pancreatic islets is an effective approach to treat type 1 diabetes. To bypass the need for systemic administration of immunosuppression drugs following transplantation, approaches to genetically modify allogeneic islets to express anti-inflammatory, immunosuppressive, or antiapoptotic proteins prior to transplantation are being developed. Adeno-associated viral (AAV) based vectors have been used for gene transfer to islets, but the efficiency of functional transduction is low. Recently, double-stranded (ds) or double-copy (dc) based AAV vectors have been developed that allow for more rapid and efficient AAV-mediated transgene expression following transduction. Here we demonstrate that intact human and murine islets can be transduced with dsAAV2-eGFP efficiently compared to single-stranded AAV2-eGFP. Furthermore, our results demonstrate that murine islets transduced with dsAAV2-eGFP have normal islet glucose responsiveness, viability, and islet insulin content. Transplantation of the dsAAV2-eGFP transduced islet restored normal glycemia in diabetic mice without eliciting an immune response. Significant dsAAV2-mediated eGFP expression was observed in the islet grafts for at least 6 months post-transplant. Finally, we demonstrated that dsAAV serotypes 2, 6, and 8 infect human islets efficiently. Taken together, these results suggest that dsAAV based vectors are highly appropriate for gene transfer to islets to facilitate transplantation.
