Gene therapy for pancreatitis pain.
Review in Gene therapy, 2009. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 papers.
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.
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
Pancreatic cancer and chronic pancreatitis are clinical syndromes associated with severe pain that is difficult to manage. Thus, seeking additional pain reduction therapies is warranted. Excessive alcohol consumption over an extended period of time is the primary causal agent in pancreatitis. The efficacy of a replication defective Herpes (HSV-1, DPE) viral vector construct encoding the human preproenkephalin gene (HSV-Enk), used as a molecular therapy for alleviation of pancreatitis pain, is reviewed here. The characteristics of the gene therapy treatment for inflammation and pain-related behavior in two alcoholic pancreatitis animal models is described. Significant analgesia and protection of pancreatic tissue was provided for the duration of the transgene expression (approximately 4-6 weeks). These studies establish a basis for use of HSV-based gene therapy for chronic visceral pain. Targeted enkephalin gene therapy approaches are providing clear promise for pain control. As innovative means of significantly reducing pancreatic inflammation and preserving tissue architecture, they may extend their clinical usefulness for pancreatitis and pancreatic cancer pain patients.
