Gene therapy for metabolic disorders: an overview with a focus on urea cycle disorders.
Article in Journal of inherited metabolic disease, 2012. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 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
Many metabolic diseases are compelling candidates for gene therapy, and are the subject of vigorous pre-clinical research. Successful phenotype correction in mouse models is now commonplace and research effort is increasingly being directed towards addressing the translational challenges inherent in human clinical trials. This paper places current efforts to develop gene therapy approaches to metabolic disease in historical context and describes contemporary research in the authors' laboratory on urea cycle defects, particularly ornithine transcarbamylase deficiency, in a manner that is illustrative of the general state of the field.
