Review in Molecular genetics and metabolism, 2018. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 46 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.

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

Mucopolysaccharidoses (MPS) are a group of lysosomal storage disorders (LSDs) caused by a deficiency of lysosomal enzymes, leading to a wide range of various clinical symptoms depending upon the type of MPS or its severity. Enzyme replacement therapy (ERT), hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT), substrate reduction therapy (SRT), and various surgical procedures are currently available for patients with MPS. However, there is no curative treatment for this group of disorders. Gene therapy should be a one-time permanent therapy, repairing the cause of enzyme deficiency. Preclinical studies of gene therapy for MPS have been developed over the past three decades. Currently, clinical trials of gene therapy for some types of MPS are ongoing in the United States, some European countries, and Australia. Here, in this review, we summarize the development of gene therapy for MPS in preclinical and clinical trials.
