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

Over 1.5 million individuals suffer from cornea vascularization due to genetic and/or environmental factors, compromising visual acuity and often resulting in blindness. Current treatments of corneal vascularization are limited in efficacy and elicit undesirable effects including, ironically, vision loss. To develop a safe and effective therapy for corneal vascularization, adeno-associated virus (AAV) gene therapy, exploiting a natural immune tolerance mechanism induced by human leukocyte antigen G (HLA-G), was investigated. Self-complementary AAV cassettes containing codon optimized HLA-G1 (transmembrane) or HLA-G5 (soluble) isoforms were validated in vitro. Then, following a corneal intrastromal injection, AAV vector transduction kinetics, using a chimeric AAV capsid, were determined in rabbits. One week following corneal trauma, a single intrastromal injection of scAAV8G9-optHLA-G1 + G5 prevented corneal vascularization, inhibited trauma-induced T-lymphocyte infiltration (some of which were CD8
