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 purpose of our study was to evaluate the transduction profiles of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1)-based amplicon vectors following subretinal injection in the rat. Two amplicon vectors were tested, pHy-CMVGFP and pHy-RPEGFP, both carrying the green fluorescent protein (GFP) under the control of the cytomegalovirus (CMV) ubiquitous promoter or the RPE65-specific promoter, respectively. For the two amplicon vectors, the GFP reporter gene was efficiently expressed in retinal pigment epithelial (RPE) cells but not in the adjacent photoreceptors. GFP expression was maximum as early as 2 days post-administration but decreased over time to become almost undetectable at 6 weeks postinjection. Super-transduction with a second amplicon vector, pHSVlac, reactivated expression of GFP in approximately 10% of the cells initially transduced at 2 days postinjection of pHy-CMVGFP or pHy-RPEGFP. Reactivation of transgene expression was transient, no GFP signal was detected 8 days after pHSVlac injection. In conclusion, HSV-1 amplicon vectors allow rapid and efficient, but transient, gene transfer in RPE cells following subretinal injection.
