In utero delivery of rAAV2/9 induces neuronal expression of the transgene in the brain: towards new models of Parkinson's disease.
Article in Gene therapy, 2017. 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
Animal models are essential tools for basic pathophysiological research as well as validation of therapeutic strategies for curing human diseases. However, technical difficulties associated with classical transgenesis approaches in rodent species higher than Mus musculus have prevented this long-awaited development. The availability of viral-mediated gene delivery systems in the past few years has stimulated the production of viruses with unique characteristics. For example, the recombinant adeno-associated virus serotype 9 (rAAV2/9) crosses the blood-brain barrier, is capable of transducing developing cells and neurons after intravenous injection and mediates long-term transduction. Whilst post-natal delivery is technically straightforward, in utero delivery bears the potential of achieving gene transduction in neurons at embryonic stages during which the target area is undergoing development. To test this possibility, we injected rAAV2/9 carrying either A53T mutant human α-synuclein or green fluorescent protein, intracerebroventricularly in rats at embryonic day 16.5. We observed neuronal transgene expression in most regions of the brain at 1 and 3 months after birth. This proof-of-concept experiment introduces a new opportunity to model brain diseases in rats.
