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

Perforin-1 mutations result in a potentially fatal hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis (HLH) with heightened immune activation, hypercytokinemia, pancytopenia, and end-organ damage. At present, hematopoietic stem cell (HSC) transplantation is curative, but limited by donor availability and associated mortality, making gene therapy an attractive alternative approach for HLH. We reported that perforin expression driven by cellular promoters in lentiviral (LV) vectors resulted in significant, albeit partial, correction of the inflammatory features in a murine model of HLH. We hypothesized that the level of perforin expression achieved per cell from ectopic moderate-strength cellular promoters (phosphoglycerate kinase gene/perforin-1 gene) is inadequate and thus engineered an LV vector using a viral promoter (MND; a modified Moloney murine leukemia virus long terminal repeat with myeloproliferative sarcoma virus enhancer) containing microRNA126 target sequences to restrict perforin expression in HSCs. We show here that the MND-LV vector restored perforin expression to normal levels in a perforin-deficient human natural killer cell line and perforin gene-corrected Perforin1
