Slow Intrathecal Injection of rAAVrh10 Enhances its Transduction of Spinal Cord and Therapeutic Efficacy in a Mutant SOD1 Model of ALS.
Article in Neuroscience, 2017. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 20 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled 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.
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
Mutant SOD1 causes amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) by a dominant gain of toxicity. Previous studies have demonstrated therapeutic potential of mutant SOD1-RNAi delivered by intrathecal (IT) injection of recombinant adeno-associated virus (rAAV). However, optimization of delivery is needed to overcome the high degree of variation in the transduction efficiency and therapeutic efficacy. Here, on the basis of our previously defined, efficient IT injection method, we investigated the influence of injection speed on transduction efficiency in the central nervous system (CNS). We demonstrate that slow IT injection results in higher transduction of spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia (DRG) while fast IT injection leads to higher transduction of brain and peripheral organs. To test how these effects influence the outcome of RNAi therapy, we used slow and fast IT injection to deliver rAAVrh10-GFP-amiR-SOD1, a rAAV vector that expresses GFP and an artificial miRNA targeting SOD1, in SOD1-G93A mice. Both slow and fast IT injection produced therapeutic efficacy but the slow injection trended slightly toward a better outcome than the fast injection. These results demonstrate that IT injection speed influences the predominance of gene delivery at different CNS sites and should be taken into consideration in future therapeutic trials involving IT injection.
