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

Uveitis is a sight threatening inflammatory disorder that remains a significant cause of visual loss. We investigated lentiviral gene delivery of interleukin 1 receptor antagonist (IL-1ra) or interleukin (IL)-10 to ameliorate murine endotoxin-induced uveitis (EIU). An human immunodeficiency virus-1-based vector containing the mIL-1ra or mIL-10 cDNA demonstrated high expression of biologically active cytokine. Following administration of Lenti.GFP into the anterior chamber, transgene expression was observed in corneal endothelial cells, trabecular meshwork and iris cells. To treat EIU, mice were injected with Lenti.IL-1ra, Lenti.IL-10 or a combination of these. EIU was induced 14 days after vector administration and mice were culled 12 h following disease induction. Lenti.IL-1ra or Lenti.IL-10-treated eyes showed significantly lower mean inflammatory cell counts in the anterior and posterior chambers compared with controls. The aqueous total protein content was also significantly lower in treated eyes, demonstrating better preservation of the blood-ocular barrier. Furthermore, the treated eyes showed less in vivo fluorescein leakage from inner retinal vessels compared with controls. The combination of both IL-1ra and IL-10 had no additive effect. Thus, lentiviral gene delivery of IL-1ra or IL-10 significantly reduces the severity of experimental uveitis, suggesting that lentiviral-mediated expression of immunomodulatory genes in the anterior chamber offers an opportunity to treat uveitis.
