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

Salivary glands (SGs) appear to be a useful target site for gene therapeutics. The ability to control transgene expression is essential for clinical application. Previously, in a proof-of-concept study, we have shown that the rapamycin-inducible transcriptional regulation system can regulate protein expression after adenoviral-mediated gene transfer to SGs. To evaluate the potential ability to utilize this regulatory system for long-term control of transgene expression in this tissue, we employed a 'third generation', single adenoassociated serotype 2 viral (AAV2) vector encoding human erythropoietin (hEPO) under the control of a rapamycin-inducible promoter. The vector, rAAV-TF2.3-hEPO (10(10) particles/animal), was delivered to mouse SGs. No detectable increase in serum hEPO or hematocrit levels was observed in the absence of rapamycin administration. However, rapamycin induced elevation of serum hEPO levels, as well as concomitant hematocrit changes, that were dose-dependent, completely reversible, and relatively stable over the course of this study (6 months), with no appreciable change in rapamycin responsiveness. Our results suggest that the rapamycin transcriptional regulation system delivered in a single AAV2 vector to SGs may be valuable for systemic protein replacement applications.
