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

Bicistronic transgene expression mediated by internal ribosome entry site (IRES) elements has been widely used. It co-expresses heterologous transgene products from a message RNA driven by a single promoter. Hematologic gene delivery is a promising treatment for both inherited and acquired diseases. A combined strategy was recently documented for potential genome editing in hematopoietic cells. A transduction efficiency exceeding ~90% can be achieved by capsid-optimized recombinant adeno-associated virus serotype 6 (rAAV6) vectors. In this study, to deliver an encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) IRES-containing rAAV6 genome into hematopoietic cells, we observed that EMCV IRES almost completely shut down the transgene expression during the process of mRNA-protein transition. In addition, position-dependent behavior was observed, in which only the EMCV IRES element located between a promoter and the transgenes had an inhibitory effect. Although further studies are warranted to evaluate the involvement of cellular translation machinery, our results propose the use of specific IRES elements or an alternative strategy, such as the 2A system, to achieve bicistronic transgene expression in hematopoietic cells.
